    Dans Diner
    Egahh B.

    This is a hidden gem of a place. Its on old 1930 diner trailer that was fully restored for current use. I stopped in a few Saturdays ago after a hunting trip. Great place to grab a bite after hunting, camping, hiking or whatever reason. All the food is made right in front of you. I had the cheese burger with French fries. Just classic diner fare. The place was packed so you know it's good. Most people were getting breakfast and no one leaves hungry. The food is very good and the 3 ladies working that day were really hustling. The woman doing all the cooking was 70 years old and was killing in the kitchen making everyone's meal. Kudos to those 3 employees. Dans dinner is the place to go in Chatham.

    Perfect, amazing, fabulous. Food is quick and delicious with awesome service, very nice workers, good food, will be coming back 100% again and again

    Dan's Interior, old time diner feel.

    Great food, made in front of you. Friendly atmosphere. Counter seating only but that adds to the intimate atmosphere. Outside seating in warmer weather

    Fresh squeezed lemonade

    Really great restored railroad car diner from 1925. Feels like entering a time capsule in terms of ambiance. Sometimes I worry that diner food isn't going to be as good as other breakfast places but Dan's food was stellar. Thick cut bacon was delicious and the home fries were perfectly crunchy and really well spiced. You can see the cook make all the food from scratch on the griddle. Next time I'm getting the french toast which looked incredible. I also got the fresh squeezed lemonade. It looks expensive but that is only because they give you a huge quantity. Could see them make that too. I think locals are trying to keep this place on the down low because it was packed but I couldn't find much about the place online. Menu is not extensive but diners are for the basics.

    Visiting family in Ghent. They recommended this diner as one of the local spots. Stopped in for breakfast on our first day. The pancakes were buttery, eggs & meat tasted fresh! We ended up going back for lunch later in the week. Got a simple grilled cheese and onion rings. Both were perfectly cooked and seasoned! There is only one chef who cooked each ticket individually - it did take a while, but the waiters were attentive and friendly! Charles was great!

    Wonderful, quaint breakfast nook in what I guess used to be a trolley (?), with the the sliding doors and all. Got to enjoy breakfast with the regulars whilst traveling thru the 2022 blizzard; might pick up a t-shirt next time ( yes, they have souvenirs). Waitress Steph was great. So glad to have discovered this place; a once in a lifetime thing.

    Did I know what I was getting into when I stopped for lunch in Craryville?…read more No. Sometimes you're on a road trip and you need to stop to eat. Often, these meals are nothing special - just fuel for the trip. But sometimes you get lucky. We stopped because we were hungry and because the map said there was a place to eat just off the Taconic. Right off the exit we were greeted by an old-school stainless steel diner that looked well-maintained and inviting. At this point, my expectations for the stop had already been exceeded. Inside, we learned that this was an old Silk City Diner from 1958, and the decor reflected this history. We took a comfortable booth by a window. Service was friendly. One of the day's specials was fried scallops. Now, many people might think an old roadside diner that's 100 miles from the ocean might not be a good place to order seafood, but I had a feeling I was making a good choice. I didn't even ask the waitress how the scallops were - I just ordered. The scallops were perfectly cooked, enjoyable to eat, and exceeded my expectations. They came with fries, gravy, and broccoli, which were all fine (but nothing special). It wasn't all perfect. The coffee was weak, and it didn't seem like all the food met the level of the scallops. But for a random rest stop it was fantastic. Will I be planning a trip to Craryville just to go to the Martindale Chief Diner? Probably not. But would I stop in if I was traveling through this area again? Absolutely.

Only 1500 were made from 1926 to 1966 in Paterson NJ making Silk City Diners a very important part of the American culinary landscape.

MCD does it all and then some, don't miss this wonderful hidden restaurant gem!

Inside there is a dining area that wraps around bathrooms. On the counters, staff left their empty gum wrappers, staff drink coolers, dirty rags, half eaten sandwiches, empty bottles, refilled Tostitos jars with stinky substances, papers, and cloths etc. At the counter there was a long wait. Regular visitors brought their own food. Several of the service vitrines were cracked. The glass + tableware racks that busboys brought, were very dirty (see pictures, replace them). My meatloaf sandwich - which is a staple that I usually opt for, when there are many items, was filled with carrot and greens; which left a weird taste, that was not meatloafy on my palette! The sides were good, the coffee as well: but the coffee was always empty. The food is middle of the road. Service is slow and lacks a single 'leader' who can keep business humming along. People waited to pay. Cash was left unpaid on the register - people just gave up and walked out. It is very very chaotic. Food is passable, not refined. Coffee refills took a very long time. Chaotic female wait staff, that creates massive dining room problems and backups for diners wanting to pay. Staff make problems not solving them! Review: -4

Onion rings, great. You can't beat their prices on breakfast and their typically large servings. One thing was pretty average is their breakfast gravy.

    Second time there and honestly, the crunchy French toast is what brought us back. Its to die for…read more Espresso martinis were excellent. The first time I was there I had the avocado toast, which was great. My friend had their breakfast burrito which he thought was soggy and fell apart but hey it happens. Food delivery was very slow the first time, but our server was nice and the drinks were flowing so it was fine. Our table all has 20+ years each in the service industry, we get it. Today once again the crunchy French toast was amazing. We got it for the table to share and everybody couldn't get enough. The service was just really weird. It was like she really didn't want us to be there. And she didn't want to be there. She wasn't really rude, but she was pretty indifferent and took a long time to come back to the table. A second round of drinks was obviously off putting to her. Then I needed a change for a 20 so I could just leave cash for the check and hadn't seen her for a while so I asked another server who just walked by and said I'm not your server without even making eye contact with me. When I got the change, she was a little bit rude with me about it. It was 1 o'clock, they were past the brunch rush. It was just an odd experience with the server. I get having a bad day, but you shouldn't make it so obvious that you wished that you didn't have to be there.

There are baked items everywhere along with gift shop inventory. A few seats line the shop for a quick bite and sip before heading back on the road. The second is a dine-in restaurant with a diverse menu and great service. The space is cozy and there are two spaces. The bar area and the dining room. Both areas have ample seating and invite you to stay and relax a bit. I opted for the chicken and waffles. A+ The breakfast burrito was good, but was not the typical flavor profile of what I've had previously. People next to us ordered the Hangover Hash and it looked plentiful and enough to feed two! Amazing overall with lightning fast service. The receipt has a QR code allowing you to pay with you phone. Very convenient. We ate here twice in four days and hope to visit again the next time we're in town.
