    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!!

    This was, without a doubt, the most extraordinary dining experience of my entire life. From start…read moreto finish, every moment was a masterpiece. We have been loyal Cape May devotees for twenty years, but our spontaneous venture into Wildwood Crest turned out to be a gastronomic revelation. On our final day before heading back to the beloved Cape, we stumbled upon this gem of a diner. From the instant we walked through the door, we were treated like royalty. A warm, enthusiastic greeting ushered us into a charming, spotless booth. The atmosphere radiated with nostalgic American charm. Our waitress, the epitome of friendliness, promptly took our drink orders, setting the tone for an unforgettable culinary journey. My husband selected the macadamia nut French toast, while I opted for the Greek-style Hangover. Both dishes transcended mere breakfast fare and entered the realm of the sublime. My plate, an exquisite blend of savory chipped beef, creamy feta, roasted tomatoes, and perfectly cooked eggs, was nothing short of heavenly. Each bite was a symphony of flavors and textures, an experience so divine it could have earned a Michelin star. I am still in awe, with the taste lingering as a cherished memory. And then there was the macadamia nut French toast. Imagine the softest, fluffiest slices of French toast, bathed in golden syrup and crowned with delicate macadamia nuts and brown sugar. Each bite was an ethereal, out-of-body experience, combining extraordinary flavors with an unparalleled texture that defies description. But the excellence did not stop there. The prices were astonishingly reasonable, and the service was beyond impeccable. The delightful owner personally visited our table to ensure our satisfaction, and even the cook seemed to take a moment to check on us. This level of dedication and personal touch elevated our dining experience to an unprecedented level. In summary, the service was flawless, the food was transcendent, and the ambiance was the epitome of classic American diner perfection. Even the coffee was exceptional--hot, smooth, and refilled at just the right moments. This diner is not just a recommendation; it is a must-visit, a culinary pilgrimage. It earns an A+++ in every conceivable category. The kids would say this place "ATE," and I wholeheartedly agree. This diner provided a dining experience that will be cherished for a lifetime. If you ever find yourself within a hundred miles, make the trip. You will not be disappointed. Highly, highly, highly recommend! ,

    Welcome to mini-golf course #26!…read more Duffer's is now my favorite mini-golf course in the Wildwoods, and it's not because I scored a hole-in-one. Even with summer winding down, the course is in fantastic shape. It's a fun course with holes that seem to chat to you, others playing music, and one even has a volcano eruption! There's so much to see and do for kids of all ages. They don't have stairs to climb, but some holes have hidden slopes that are worth keeping an eye out for. My wife thinks there isn't much shade on the course, so people will buy ice cream, but I don't think Duffer's has that problem.

We came here around 11:30am on a Sunday. The arcade was little busy. Their price for chips was really good, I bought 120 chips for only $30. Most of the arcade games required 6-10 chips. 120 chips lasted about 15 minutes for us playing different games non stop. The arcade had good variety of games. The prize counter also had lots of prizes to redeem the winning tickets. Prizes ranged from 50 to 10,000 tickets. For our stash of only 400 tickets, the kids in our group were able to get multiple items. After the arcade we went to the ice cream store. The store looked really nice. It was only for to go, but some benches were available outside. They had about 34 different flavors and whole of different toppings. For base, cones, waffles and cups were available. We ordered two different ice creams flavors in waffle cones. The staff members assembled them right away and handed to us. They put so much ice cream and it was so hot, the ice cream started to melt and drip. So they gave us cups to hold them upside down. The ice creams had really tasty flavors. They were creamy with no icy parts. They were also very pricey, each costing around $10. But overall we all had a fun time here between the arcade and ice creams.

Always made sure our coffee and water stayed filled. I ordered the banana french toast. Each layer was stacked to the brim with soft but not super mushy bananas and the most delicious brown sugar, caramel. Although it did not come with a side it was quite filling (though if you have a larger appetite I'd order one). George's special was exactly as described. The hashbrowns stole the show. Pancakes were a little underwhelming in our opinion. Would order something else if we came again.

They have a solid menu with a variety of breakfast dishes including different omelets. I usually get the Jackie O with spinach, tomatoes, and feta although this time I got the Jive Turkey with turkey sausage and dill havarti. It was a little on the dry side. However, they do give you an option of cherry tomatoes in place of potatoes on the side. I also love the choice of bread including sour dough. My husband's banana French toast tasted delicious with the cinnamon and bananas. Be advised, they only have whole milk, so if you like almond or oat milk with your coffee, you're out of luck. Also, there was no stevia. Please note they are cash only too.
