My girlfriend wants to go to every diner in New Jersey. Which is funny and will probably never happen. But I'm along for the ride. This weekend we went to Alps diner for breakfast and I enjoyed it. I had the lumberjack, which was Canadian bacon regular bacon, eggs, Home fries and pancakes. It was so big. I couldn't even finish it. Pancakes were tasty as were the eggs. The meat was cooked nicely. I particularly like the home of fries. They were brown, which is actually a rarity. Very good diner. read more

So I am on a mission to go to every diner in New Jersey. We went here for breakfast on Sunday morning. Yes if you follow me at all, you know I can't turn down turkey club and that's my gold standard for measuring all other diners. This is a good one. They have multigrain bread which was delicious and the turkey is real turkey breast that is sliced generously. The lettuce tomato were fresh and the bacon was thick sliced and generous. I didn't want french fries so I opted for coleslaw and I got a side substituted. The coleslaw could've had more salt and lacked real flavor and tartness, but it did the trick. The Turkey club, however, was exceptional. My boyfriend got the lumberjack breakfast. It was very generous. Cook cooked well and he enjoyed it. read more

Although I have been to this diner a lot this is the first time that I have to write a very negative review. 5 nights ago my hubby and I were in the diner and I ordered a chicken salad sandwich on rye toast with lettuce. tomato and onion. I asked them to make sure to add the onion. Yes, the sandwich was good but they charged me $1.00 for the onion. When I went to them about this charge, they told me that the sandwich only comes with lettuce and the waiter forgot to charge me for the tomato and that the onion charge was correct. Needless to say I am not going g back!!!! read more

Good place to have lunch or breakfast! Very close to where we live & convenient. Portion sizes are generous. Plenty of options. Service is okay. Regular diner vibes. read more

Orders for delivery are never correct. Meals not prepared as advertised. The quality of food is good, but the service is horrible and it's just not worth going through the hassle any more. read more

Classic NJ diner with great options and great atmosphere! Always a go to spot when I'm in the area

Been here a few times. Good friendly service. Food is good. Nothing special. Only problem that I had was a looking closely at bill. Charged 4.00 each for fountain drinks. All other diners 2.50 to 3.00. Also got dinner that came with 2 sides. Got potato and spinach. Server asked if I wanted spinach steamed or sautéed. Said sautéed. Got tiny portion and was charged 2.00 additional. I guess this is a way to get extra money. Not happy. I don't like being nickel and dimed. Just lost a customer. read more

I love this diner...just wish it were closer. Wifey and I have been here 4-5 times and for some reason I never reviewed it. Last time we went, I had an omelet with ham, cheddar and spinach with grits and rye toast. I love grits - so if they are on the menu, I'm getting them. Wifey had the California omelette with avocado, scallions, tomato and cheddar with well done home fries and rye toast. Coffee was just ok...it was a new pot and seemed like it could have been a little stronger. Staff has always been friendly and service was pretty quick for how busy they were the past couple times there. I like the old school feel of this place, reminds me of the diners we'd go to as kids. read more

Pretty good diner. Place was packed which is a good sign. Food was average - Got the 2 egg platter and everything tasted fine. Coffee was good for being a diner coffee ee. Service was good. The wait staff were attentive and kept checking in if everything was good. Ambiance is good. Vibrant and clean read more

Good breakfast! Highlights: - poached eggs done right - breakfast potatoes are little red potatoes with onions and peppers and seasoned just right. - their chorizo is a great choice as a breakfast side as it's butterflied and a good, not grizzly like some places. Fair price point and good food finest this location! read more

Very good food and everyone is friendly and accommodating . Try the breakfast tacos, I havevto bring half home.

My wife and I have been on a quest to visit a new diner for breakfast on the weekend. After many years driving by the Alps Diner we finally took the dive and went in! Super friendly staff. Hearty portions as you can see by the photos and very tasty food. My wife loved her chorizo Benedict. Had a bite and chorizo was super delicious. We will definitely be back! read more

Always a pleasant experience at the Alps Diner. Service is always good and food is always fresh and delicious. The Taylor Ham burger I had was perfect and gave me flashbacks to when I was younger and had these a lot. The teriyaki wings were fantastic. Overall a solid diner where you won't wait an hour for a table. Enjoy read more

New Jersey has many great diners which offer quality food at a reasonable price. On the road early in the morning on my way to kayaking on the Delaware river, I stopped at the Alps Diner, a family owned and operated business. Their promotion is "We have everything all day." Featuring itself as a retro-diner, it has red bucket seats and lots of chrome in it's interior. Like most diners in N.J., the menu is large offering everything from waffles to fish to burritos. Breakfast is served at 7 am followed by lunch and dinner. They have counter service, as well as, tables, and bucket seats. The faimly has been in the diner and catering business for more than 20 years. They offer online take-out and delivery. It is BYOB and they do not have a corkage fee. My usual breakfast is oatmeal with some type of fruit but on this day I had their 3 egg breakfast which came with hashbrowns, toasted and buttered rye bread and your choice of tea or coffee ($6.25). This diner offers value, large portion size, fresh ingredients,quality food and a large menu. If you are ever in New Jersey try this diner or one of the many other great diners in this state. read more

Love this Diner. They have a fantastic breakfast menu only place around with "grits"and great coffee. Not in the mood for breakfast! Get the roasted chicken dinner. Chicken, potato, stuffing, veggies, soup. Service is wonderful and since they have taken over that spot in Wayne they have a full parking lot. Great old school Diner feel. read more

As my previous reviews attest, the food is superb. And they nske the best cole slaw anywhere. Service is excellent and courteous. I was a bit disappointed when they charged me $1 EACH, for a lettuce, tomato and onion slice, for my cheeseburger. So I paid an additional 37% for garnishes? And they also apparently add a fee, for credit payment. I'll think, before I go back. Things are tough for restaurants, but it's tough for consumers, too. Every dollar counts. read more

We stopped here on a Wednesday night just looking for a fast meal. I am not a diner fan but this place was great! I want to give props to the waitress who was waiting tables, busing and doing it all with a smile. Our food was delicious ! We had a cup of tea each and were surprised to see it was a great name brand and not the typical Lipton's. I also have to say their friend fries were amazing! Not greasy at all! read more

Foods delicious. Enjoyed everything we've had. Great burgers. Great service. Family setting. Definitely recommend.

Ordered delivery tonight. What a disaster. Order was missing several items. I called and they told me that specialty burgers need to be ordered deluxe to come with fries. For 13.95 it should have included fries, like every other diner's specialty burgers do. Roll on burger was burnt beyond recognition. Also ordered an omelette that was supposed to have chorizo, it had maybe 4 pieces. Pickle they gave us was 2 thin slices. Every other diner gives 1/2 or a whole pickle. Never again. read more

This place has it ALL!! And we'll made too! We were on our way to Pompton Queen but it was too much of a way so we decided on Alps- GREAT GREAT CHOICE!!! Cream of turkey, toasts, eggs, cheeseburger ( a REAL ONE)- fries - coleslaw- the Alps appetizer was to die for too!! The only thing we regret was not coming here sooner- ENJOY!! Nice new management too!! read more

Alps Diner - Me in love with the idea of having cream of turkey! - Diners Near Me - Wayne, New Jersey

A perfect meal with fabulous service. Laurie was so great! And our food couldn't have been fresher. They literally made our egg salad fresh for us. We will be back as soon as we can! read more

Came here for the first time since remolded. Nicely done, clean restrooms and inviting atmosphere. They have daily specials as well as before 11 am a breakfast special. 3 eggs, coffee, toast 7.00. Wait staff was friendly. Normally go to Pompton Queen Dinner.up the road. Liked this dinner better. Food was fresh and tasty. read more

The man who "greeted" us left us standing for over 20 minutes - although there were numerous seats available. Once seated a clearly over-worked server came to us and we placed our order. 25 minutes to get eggs and a wrap order. (Clearly not the server's fault). Food was terrible. Hollandaise sauce was definitely from a package. Luke warm. Potatoes in the side were greasy, cold and uneditable. Will not be going there again. I should have waited a half hour at the Pompton Queen Diner, where I know the food, and the service is always excellent . read more

Best burger I've had in a long time. My son said the same thing. So good! We upgraded our fries to disco fries, delish. Good coffee and good shakes. Nice environment, very clean, convenient location, friendly staff. Definitely will come again. read more

I visit the Alps Diner I indeed recommend this food was delicious and the service we received by the Paulette was spectacular she was very pleasant a my husband and I was very happy with our service read more

Pretty solid breakfast. The blueberry pancake had about 50/50 fruit:batter ratio. Would have gone way easier on the berries. The sunny side up eggs survived a 30 minute car ride and remained warm, as did the bacon. The Cuban is massive - plenty for 2 meals. The turkey dinner was good. Lots of food. read more

Atmosphere: A The Alps Diner sticks out in Wayne, NJ. The exterior is metallic, shiny, and the Alps Diner is abnormally tall. It's hard to miss when driving by. Of all of the diners on NJ-23, the Alps Diner stands out the most. The interior of the Alps Diner is like a blast from the past. There are plenty of booths, tables, and a full-length bar. Coffee: C The Alps Diner coffee was okay but nothing to write home about. I was slightly disappointed that it was lukewarm. Food: B Known for their good food, the Alps Diner menu has every option you can imagine on a diner menu. I wasn't sure what I was in the mood for. There is all-day breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I was between the pork chops and a gyro, so I decided to order the pork chops. The pork chops came with a salad, side, and potato. I ordered the greek salad and a side of corn. The Greek salad was the best part of the meal. The dressing was tasty and the salad tasted fresh. Sadly, both the pork chops were thin and tasted as if they had been reheated. I was disappointed with my meal. Was it edible? Yes, was it bland and boring? Yes. Service: A Our waitress at the Alps Diner was great and the food came out fast. I couldn't have asked for better service. Overall Thoughts: The Alps Diner was one of the most stereotypical diners out there. There was nothing unusual or unique, and the food was clearly frozen and reheated. If you are looking for a retro, stereotypical diner, Alps Diner is it. It's right in the middle as far as diners go. Nothing terrible but nothing great either. read more

How this location has evolved! Once the Spindletop Diner, with Jenny Lind woodwork, then the Northsrar 23 with mauve & chrome modernism, then Burger Deluxe, with its eclectic menu and finally the FIRST Alps Diner that did not do well. But now, there's the NEW Alps Diner, with a great menu, outstanding service and quality food. Only reason I couldn't give it 5 stars, was the tight parking. That aside, I enjoyed their generous chef salad, which is probably the best I've had in this area. And I like their fresh, crispy cole slaw so much, I bought some to take home! Give Alps a try. For me, it's become a go-to.​ read more
