    Chocolate chip pancakes
    Shane N.

    The food was amazing, definitely top tier diner food. Thw omelette I ate in the restaurant and the pancakes I got to go both of which were good experiences. The omelette was very tasty and a solid portion size. The pancakes were very fluffy and soft, and they smelled so good in the car I knew they were going to be great. The service was quick and they were very attentive there. The diner itself is small and offers a decent amount of seating for parties under 6, I'd call to check if you're going with more people. Also it's on Main Street so it does not have a separate parking area but there is a lot of parking on the street.

    This is my second time here. First time for breakfast this time for lunch. Small diner in downtown Denville. Not many tables but both times I've been able to walk in and sit down. They also have some tables outside. The staff is friendly and answers all questions. Their burgers are pretty good! The waitress told me they're freshly made which was the selling point for me. Their fries are also the perfect crisp. Breakfast was decent when we came, but in general I prefer lunch food.

    First time visiting Denville Diner and it is a great local favorite spot. A cool casual ambiance with terrific service and the food outstanding. My wife and I both had their World Famous Corned Beef Has with sunny side eggs and and home fries A home run and unlimited coffee for only $2. A must if you're in the area.

    I decided to come here for lunch. I loved the way it looked inside with the American flag. The prices were great and affordable. I decided to go with the open sided gyro and wow it was very delicious. I would highly recommend coming here and checking this spot out. Everything is very delicious and I didn't take any food home.

    On a friends suggestion I took a short ride to downtown Denville for lunch at the Denville Diner. Located on Broadway in the middle of Denville's very cool, eclectic dining scene, I was expecting your basic diner with often great food, but basically cookie cutter style ambiance. This small venue was quite different. With cozy, small town Americana décor, a homey, mom and pop vibe, with a sort of yuppie touch, it presented a very vibrant, comfortable, and interesting dining scene. Plus, I loved the very large American flag that covered a portion of one wall. The place was bustling, yet the staff was very attentive and provided fast, friendly, and welcoming service. There is also dining outside if that's your preference, and by the time we left there were people lined up outside to get in. That speaks for itself. I had a Rueben Sandwich, which was very tasty. Not too big, not too small, and the sandwich was well made, with ample slices of corned beef, and plenty of sauerkraut; enough to leave me satisfied. My friend had a 1+1+1+1 ((French Toast, pancake, egg, and sausage combo), sorry I was to slow to get a picture of that dish, but it looked good. Prices are reasonable and there was plenty of street parking available. Give it a try! 07/28/2024

    Nice small town style diner. Good food, friendly staff. Picnic table sidewalk seating.

    17 Broadway in center of Downtown Denville

    No doubt there's been a lot of talk of all the new places in town with many posts about the experiences. While these new places are always a welcome to what is already a fantastic dinning scene in downtown Denville, we can't forgot about the Denville landmarks that are just as awesome. Today's breakfast outing was to the Denville Diner, located at 17 Broadway pretty much smack dab in the center of downtown Denville. When going out for breakfast with two teenagers, you really don't have to be to concerned about waiting in lines because by the time we actually got out the door, the crowds were gone and we only waited for a few minutes before sitting down. Whenever I go for breakfast, a great way to start off the meal is the time it takes to sit down, have a server get the drink order in, until how long it takes to sip my coffee and will say Denville Diner did a great job! The menu had a great choice of lunch and breakfast choices and they even get extra points for their "plant based" menu options that were available. To set the record straight, I'm a meat and potatoes guy, but happy to see these options are available for my daughter. We stuck with breakfast and had the 1+1+1+1 (Frenchtoast, pancake, egg and sausage - instead of the sausage, they accommodated and egg swap without any hassle), the chocolate chip pancakes and a side of bacon, and the Spicey Omelet (Chicken sausage, jalapenos, roasted peppers and mozzarella cheese) with some whole wheat toast. The food was prepared quickly and was fresh and tasty and the service was good. A refill on the coffee was poured which also makes for a great dinning experience. Overall, it was a great meal and a great reminder to support all the local businesses in town. Not sure how long they have been around, but they are definitely worth visiting when looking for a great breakfast spot. I left full and satisfied and that is always a win in my book.

    Lemon ricotta blueberry pancakes
    Kelly P.

    I've been craving waffles or pancakes for a while now. I went to three different locations before stumbling upon Denville Diner, and man am I SOOO glad that I did! I decided to be adventurous today and ordered the lemon ricotta blueberry pancakes and they were .... Well... chefs kiss The pancake was so light and fluffy. The ricotta topping had the perfect balance of sweet and tart. The fresh bananas, blueberries and strawberries just added the perfect texture to each bite. Truly a delicious meal. This place will be my go to for diners.

    Skimpy turkey club

    My wife and I had lunch at the Denville Diner today and were disappointed. I have been reading good reviews, and since we were in the area, and my usual place there is closed on Mondays, I figured we'd give it a shot. The service was average, what you might expect, not overly friendly but they get you what you ordered.. We ordered one chicken soup , one bowl of chili, and a turkey club to split. My wife liked the chicken soup, and I thought the chili was pretty good, but I was shocked to see they charge $7.95 for a medium size bowl of soup. The turkey club was the skimpiest turkey club i've ever seen. Two slices of turkey , hardly any bacon, with lettuce and tomato. No pickle no Cole slaw no chips $10.95. The turkey club is my standard diner order, how I form my opinion of a place to decide if I'm coming back or not. I'm not coming back.

    The results of a wonderful breakfast.

    I had the incredible fortune to find myself in Denville this morning with both an empty stomach and two hours to fill. The Denville Diner was the perfect solution. I was able to sit in leisure while being introduced to the most incredibly authentic Corned Beef Hash I've ever come across. A hearty breakfast being necessary for the later toils of the day. Kathy was not just a joy, but was also completely understanding that I'd be sitting long enough to get through a few chapters in a rather long book. The Denville Diner is worth the trip for breakfast and I will see if I can return for their "Gourmet Burger Pop-Up" later in the week.

    Homemade corned beef hash, 2 eggs over easy, and potatoes
    Steve T.

    The last time that I had been to the Denville Diner, which was several years ago, it looked like a run down typical town diner with food to match. Fast forward to today, wow, what a difference a new owner can make. The place has been completely gutted and renovated to an open, modern concept with an equally awesome menu to match. The service was superb, the coffee was delicious, and the food was mouth watering. Both my wife and I got typical breakfast faire. I got the diner's special version of corned beef hash, eggs over easy, toast, potatoes. It was delicious, flavorful, and extremely delicious and well portioned (so much so, that I was wasn't able to eat the pancake I ordered). My wife got scrambled eggs and a pancake, both of which were superb. If you're looking for a solid new breakfast place or want to give an old one another try, Denville Diner is your place.

    I've been on an Irish Pub kick for the last week and Thatcher's is a classic…read more Hubby of course had a Guinness. He likes it here because they have the full size pint glasses where many other restaurants have switched to the smaller size. I got a Stella on draft because I'm not a fan of the stouts and lagers. Hubby got a cup of the hearty beef barley soup then enjoyed his corned beef sandwich with seasoned fries. Very big portion that he is going to have for lunch tomorrow. I went with the chicken curry. It's my daughter's go to favorite for this place and I know she will be happy to have some of my leftovers since the portion is so huge. Hubby liked dipping his fries in the sauce (as did I). Such a joyful meal! I highly recommend it! He got a coffee and we split a piece of cheesecake. It was a large plate for a small piece. It may not have been too small, but perhaps some Whipped cream or a smaller plate to appease the eye. The service is fantastic! We sat and had menus right away, whenever we finished a drink or food. They cleared items right away and were very attentive. There were TVs over the bar with various games and it looks like this was the place for World Cup soccer. The bar area is very lively and a fun place to hang out. But there are also multiple rooms where you can have a quieter meal or even outdoor dining when the weather permits. If you haven't been here, do stop by when you are in the Denville area. You will love it!
