    Burger and fries
    LaToya B.

    The food was absolutely delicious. I had the Nashville chicken sandwich that was recommended by our waitress, best decision ever my daughter had one of their burgers and she demolished it. The service was great. The food came out quickly and fresh. Would definitely recommend.

    If you love the 1950s era and the music (and decent diner food), this IS ABSOLUTELY your spot. Doo Wop Diner brings diners back to the days of the Doo Wop Era not only with its interior design, but also the music blaring from its sound systems. You'll feel like you've transported back to the future like Marty McFly, except you won't need a DeLorean for this. This diner is nooooo gimmick as the food is surprisingly pretty good here. Like any diner, they've got a variety of different selections that'll make your head spin and make you wish you can order everything. They've got your breakfast items - omelettes, sandwiches, pancakes and French toasts. They've got your lunch/dinner faves like 1/4 lb foot long hot dogs, half lb burgers, sandwiches, wrapes and, of course, milkshakes and malts. On our visit here, my wife ordered the Doo Wop Burger and I went with the Road Runner Dog. For the kids, we ordered the Baby Bopper Dog and Fish and Chips. Like I said, all of the food was surprisingly pretty good. We've had bad experiences with beach boardwalk food in the past, but Doo Wop Diner really exceeded our expectations as we knew we were taking a chance when we walked in. The highlight for me though was actually the addictive crinkle cut fries that was served with all of our meals. They were probably frozen, but I absolutely couldn't stop eating them because they were just so perfectly crispy and crunchy - dare I say even better than Shake Shack's fries????? To wash down our meals, I also ordered the Strawberry Banana Shake, which was a real deal ice cream shake and quite refreshing - just ask my kids. If you're walking north on the boardwalk from the Convention Center, chances are you'll easily run into the Doo Wop Diner. At first, you'll think it was just another gimmicky restaurant on the boardwalk, but you'll quickly find out that they probably serve some of the better food on the Wildwood Boardwalk, so fill up here.

    Burgers and 50's fan fair is what you will find here along with lots of other goodies as there's something for everyone even those who want an eating challenge! Coming here was kinda like heyyy there's a place we can get out of the boardwalk sun and away from the tram car for a minute let's go sit and get some food and that's exactly what we did! They have your standard you'd find at a place like this burgers malts fries fried goodies and all that in between so it's just pick your poison at that point! For me it was all about the burger that had the fried pickles on it as that's like one of my favorite things along with it came the fries which were good too and let me say it was definitely yummy and totally just hit the spot for this given day of adventure. My friend Eric from Pride Coaster Club got the burger challenge and wow this thing was a tower of burger goodness along with those fries makes for like 5 meals for me lol! He seemed to enjoy it for the most part. Our service was awesome and everyone was very friendly and this was an awesome little spot to get some classic boardwalk food. Overall who knows when or if I'll ever get back here again but it definitely was what's good for this given day of boardwalk adventure!

    Another delicious lunch. Fish tacos were great, salad was very fresh and delicious, hotdog was amazing!

    Of course a neon sign.

    Doors were wide open but still felt nice and cool. It is a very large menu with plenty of food choices for everyone. We were seated right away, and service was quick. They weren't really busy, and the food came out within 15 minutes. It is decorated like a old soda shop with plenty of nostalgia on the walls. The food wasn't bad actually the burgers were really good and juicy.cooked perfectly. I'd eat there again. Average sandwiches are around $14.

    This place is such a gem! Located centrally on the boardwalk, they can accommodate large groups. They are very efficient, & maintain quality. Their burgers are amazing!! The bread was phenomenal, as were the fries. The burger itself was decent + they have a fun variety. I would recommend!!

    Do woo burger

    I decided to go with the chili cheese dog with the friend onions and a couple different things. The bread is delicious and the hot is all beef. However I'm not a fan of the chili and that's for personal choice. I don't do beans. I prefer a hot dog chili not the chili you eat out of a bowl. My waitress never did refills and it was a okay experience. The pickles are yummy! My daughter loved the burger but didn't like her chocolate pb shake cause it was not very flavored. So the food was good and if I go back I'll try the burger next time.

    The entrance.

    This is a great hidden gem. My family has been coming to Wildwood every summer for over 20 years…read moreand has been living here year-round for about 5 years. We did not learn about this place until this past summer (2022). This is truly a hidden gem. The food is very tasty and is your typical breakfast item while having some additional tasty dishes. The prices are very fair. I love their potatoes which is a plus since breakfast potatoes are the highlight of most breakfast meals. The owners are very friendly. This place is owned by a family and is family-run. The only downside of this place is that they are small. I wish it were bigger just because I love their food so much and don't want to wait for a table, but it typically is not crowded since it is a hidden gem. I have no complaints, and the view is amazing. This is a great breakfast spot, and I believe everyone should go here and try their food! Plus, you would be supporting a small business!

    Not bad -like others say, it's not the prior place. I never visited the prior place with Gorg view…read morebut it was OK. Service is great-very friendly staff. Located inside hotel. Worn down - must have been a prior venue but not bad. Pancakes were delish. Omelette was tasty and waffle wasn't the ick and fluffy but tasty. Wouldn't go out of my way to return but would Totally try when in area.

The plate came with delicious French fries and a salad. It was exactly the kind of meal I wanted. We all very much enjoyed our lunch. As we were finishing my MIL said I made a great choice. Haha.

I was recommended the tiramisu waffle and it did not disappoint. Loved it. Very old school diner feel. The beachfront location makes it an easy stop before heading to the beach, and the portions were generous. I'd absolutely return on my next Cape May trip. Keep in mind they do not accept credit cards and send you next door to get cash from the atm. There's no mention on this in Google and caught me and apparently the line of diners behind me by surprise as we had to pull cash for our meal after service. Would've been nice to know before hand but doesn't take away from the good food. Will return!
