We didn't realize we were supposed to wait to be seated, so in our excitement we grabbed food at the counter then brought it out back to the patio ourselves. When we realized our mistake, the server was so polite about it. It ended up being a hot day, and we had our baby, so the same server was again SO NICE about moving us to an indoor table, and even helped us carry our dishes. After all of the trouble we caused, our server ended giving us home fries on the house. I seriously can't imagine better service. We were really taken care of here. As for the food, I ordered a chicken wrap special. It was filled with chicken, broccolli, and rice, and was delicious. I was in the mood for something light and healthy, and this was it!

This popular cafe is located right in the heart of Basking Ridge. It's small inside but there's outdoor seating also. We had a half hour wait for a table inside. The place has a very cozy feel to it and everyone we met who worked here was very friendly. I started my meal with a Vanilla Chai Latte and my wife had a Macha Latte. My wife ordered the Blintzes with blueberries and I had the Paris Morning breakfast. We both loved the food! My dish came with 2 potato pancakes, 2 poached eggs, and smoked salmon. Just delicious! A cool bit of trivia is that Paul McCartney and his wife stopped in here a few years ago. We didn't see Paul today, but we did enjoy the experience!

Glad we didn't because we got great service at the bar and a lot the people in the 2 chair tables were still there enjoying their meals when we were leaving. What we ordered: - Steak and Eggs (Grilled NY strip steak, two sunny side up eggs, breakfast potatoes with Chimichurri sauce) - Eggs Benny (Two poached eggs, thick cut candied applewood bacon on toasted baguette, topped with Hollandaise sauce served with grilled asparagus) - Lemonade The food was very good. I prefer my breakfast potatoes crispy so I didn't finish those but everything else cooked to perfection. This place was on my list for a while now so I'm glad I was able to cross it off and would recommend it!

Burgers and fries, as well as salads, were fine. More recently, I went with a 3-year old who loved the model train running there, and the "big trains" that ran adjacent to the restaurant. So, good for all ages. Food, service and ambiance were perfect for this little local gem.

When we arrived they were pretty full!! But there were still a couple table opened, the gentlemen (I assume he must be the owner) direct us to the booth, and ask for our drink right away!! Which was nice since we don't need to wait for someone to come serve, we will be getting our drink super fast!! We ordered a breakfast dish (eggs, bacon, toast, and home fries), and also a country fried steak!! They came out super fast!! And OMG.. that home fries is to die for!! I think I can eat that ALL day long!! Super tasty!! As for the steak, it was ok... guess I was expecting a little more crunchier (not sure if it's because of the sauce they made the steak a bit soggy or not) but the sausage gravy is tasty as well!! The eggs are fresh and taste soo good!! Love it!! Service is super nice, I have a feeling they are family own business and they just work together so well... you can feel they genuinely care for the customers and lots of them are their usuals... We will definitely come back for sure!!! And if you are Marilyn Monroe fan that's the bonus for you!!

It feels like a hole in the wall, but at the same time is actually very clean and thoughtfully decorated. I loved all of the pictures of old fashioned movie stars on the wall, and much preferred this ambiance to any of my local diners. Our server was a young man who we later found out was the grandson of the owners, who were sitting right at the counter table. It made Marilyn's even more charming to know that it really is just a mom-and-pop that an entire family rallys to takes great pride in. I was really excited to see cheese blintz on the menu, as this is one of my favorites but is not so common! I ordered this, along with a side of bacon, and a decaf coffee. My blintz was excellent and came loaded with fresh fruits and sour cream. It was better than the blintzes I used to order from my favorite Ukranian restaurant in NYC. The bacon was cooked perfectly (crispy!) and my coffee was awesome. I will definitely be returning to bring my husband. I am only knocking off one star (it hurts to do this because I really loved my food and experience here) because they only offer bottled water, they are cash only, and the bathroom was very VERY cramped. Otherwise this would've been a five star review!

I often sit at the bar, and the bartenders (especially Robin and Dani) are absolutely amazing. They're friendly, attentive, and know how to make you feel welcome, even when they get overwhelmed. One of the things I really appreciate is that this is one of those rare places where you can ask for pretty much any cocktail, and they'll actually know how to make it or figure it out. The food is consistently good, the atmosphere is relaxed and fun, and there's always a great energy at the bar. A great place to make new friends. Friday nights can be especially fun when there's live music. And if you're lucky enough to see the red accordion make an appearance, you know you're in for one of those nights! Great food, great drinks, great people, and a genuinely fun atmosphere. Definitely a place worth checking out!

I have a food blogger friend who did a segment on Gladstone Tavern so I had it on my radar for a while. After visiting an alpaca farm in the area we stopped in for lunch on Saturday around 12. I did make a reservation the day before because I wasn't sure how busy they would be but the reservation was not necessary. We were promptly greeted and sat at an inside table. A nice gentleman brought us waters and then Hunter took care of us. He provided great service. I started with the corn chowder soup. While it was good, it was kind of basic and I had higher expectations for it. I then had the chicken schnitzel which came with a caper sauce, arugula and tomatoes. It was soooo good! If I ordered it again I would ask for some extra of the caper sauce. My mom had a burger that came with fresh cut fries and my dad has the steak and eggs. All of us really enjoyed our meals and the overall experience. We would recommend.

First of all the town is so quaint and beautiful and includes the PGA golf museum and headquarters - perfect place to stop after a hectic day in and around NYC. I arrived to this deli/market about 10 minutes after 5pm (they close at 6). The head guy told me they would make my sandwich but typically they stop making sandwiches at 5 - he was super nice about it. Everyone working there was incredibly nice and it's definitely a place locals come to buy sandwiches and fish/steak/chicken/pastas/prepared foods/homemade dinners/desserts. Everyone was chatting with each other and they included me in the conversation as it's got a very friendly atmosphere! A local guy was going to purchase some salmon to grill at home and the guy working told him it was the last day for that particular fish to get fresh tomorrow - I loved the honesty in front of everyone and the customer decided to get something else. The sandwich I got was the Chicken Cutlet. Nice compact sandwich with delicious and fresh ingredients. The bread was perfect for me - not too hard and not too soft. The price was also incredibly reasonable and the cutlet, mozzarella and tomato were all full of flavor - A+ sandwich. I got some local peach tea they sell there (they had a few flavors) and I must say it's one of the most delicious peach teas I've ever had!
