    Before the two bites previously.
    Jim H.

    I've returned to Grandma's several times since my first review. I stand by my opinion that Grandmas is fantastic and worth the trip. This morning I changed things up a bit and got the Western 3-egg omelette. I added the homemade hot sauce. Try the hot sauce. It's not gonna hurt you but it's got a great lasting flavor that is exactly what I crave when I think of this fine little restaurant. Service is great, and you know I adore the ambiance. Enjoy!

    I will go out of my way for hotdogs and this spot was well worth it! I need 85 characters to post but that bout summed it up.

    Tiny inside but never over-crowded.

    Amazing little place you would probably never notice or stop at. That would be a tragedy. It is a tiny little place you would miss completely if you aren't looking for it. It is totally unassuming but it is not to be missed. They have excellent Taylor Ham sandwiches, good burgers, good empanadas (OK, the hot dogs aren't so good) - but it is the onion rings that blow me away. I have no idea how they do it. First off, I hate, hate, hate, undercooked onions in onion rings. Truly can't stand them. Typically, there are several options when it comes to onion rings. There are onion strings that are whispy thin and dredged in flour. I like them but they are not onion rings at all. There are thinly sliced onions also coated in flour that come out nicely but aren't fully satisfying. What i truly like is a thick onion ring dipped in a nice thick batter. The issue is, it is virtually impossible to get them cooked properly. Either you cook them at a low temperature to cook all the way through and they are total grease bombs. You cook at a higher temperature long enough to cook the onions correctly and the outside is burned. You cook the outside correctly and the onions are way underdone. Somehow they manage to find that magic spot where the inside and outside are perfect. Every time. I dream about these things. So, give it a try. The inside is tiny but most of the business is take away so I have never had trouble finding a table. Really kitschy garden out front to keep you entertained while you wait for your food. Just go. You won't be sorry.

    Small little shop that offers a variety of comfort food. They have wraps, hot dogs, burgers, breakfast food, etc. Service was pretty quick. We were in and out the restaurant within 15 min.

    2 Chili Dogs with onions

    This mom and pop restaurant doesn't look like much when you drive by on Rt 22 East in Branchburg. Its located next door to the Royal/30 Burgers. It's a little green building with a decent size parking lot. It's good for Truckers because you have room to park. This is a very casual place, nothing fancy, it could use a little updating. It's wheelchair accessible. You can also place an order by phone and swing by and pick it up. They also have local delivery.( call and dbl check your area.) They have some indoor dining, and a few patio tables outside with a cute little gnome garden. Grandma's serves breakfast and lunch everyday and Sundays from 6a to 3pm. Saturdays 7a- 3pm. They offer a good selection of items. Grandma's is known for their delicious chili dogs. I had to come try it for myself. I ordered 2 CHILI DOGS with CHILI, CHEESE, and ONIONS. To my surprise, the chili dogs were some of the best I've ever had. They use premium Thumman's hot dogs which are deep fried. ( if you like Rutts Hut or Hot Dog Johnny's you'll love Grandma's.) Thumman's happens to be my favorite brand of hot dog, ( it's a Jersey, NY, Connecticut thing.) They have a nice snap when you bite into them. Grandma's chili has good flavor, not spicy it was the perfect accompaniment. They also offer Chicago Style Dogs and Texas Weiner style too along with burgers. Grandma's has fresh coffee brewing all day. You can get omelettes, french toast, pancakes, breakfast sandwiches, cheesesteaks, burritos, wraps,cuban sandwiches,quesadillas etc. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this place for breakfast and lunch especially if you like really good hot dogs.

    Charming spot nestled along the roadside, ideal for a delightful breakfast escape. I had the sunny side eggs with bacon and home fries. Service was on point I will be back !!

    Awesome tiny little spot that my boyfriend and I stumbled upon after being in the area. I really would've liked to try everything, especially the taco dog, but the bf yells when I order too much cause then he has to finish it (annoying). So He got the 49er and I got a breakfast sandwich with steak eggs pork roll and cheese. Both of our options were so good, prepared perfectly, and really fairly priced. The spot itself is cute. It's small but feels homey, especially with the little games they put on the table. It's the type of place that you want to make your Sunday morning tradition and we just might

    You know the food about to be great when it's served on a Dixie plate. Came for a quick brunch while in the area and was not disappointed. Overall, probably spent total $20 for two people and we got so much food. Looking forward to coming again.

    Ok parking sufficient. The place could use a little updating but still a cool spot. The service... I'll explain. You walk up to the counter order your food and then it's brought to your table. Very fast very clean and plentiful. The people very nice.. the only one thing I can say bad about this place is I saw two flys but I pretty sure one came in from outside so really just one. Lastly inexpensive...the bill was cheap. I recommend this place.

    Italian Hot Dog & Seasoned Fries

    Got the Italian hotdog. Not quite Jimmy Buffs level but very good. They are now open on Sunday's so it was a nice place to stop in for lunch. Limited seating with the counter and two other tables, but makes it quaint. Definitely going back to try more!

    Pork Roll, Egg and Cheese
    Peg A.

    Just like you'd cook at home, that is if you serve huge portions and make delicious food. My husband and I recently grabbed a late Sunday afternoon lunch. Pork roll, egg and cheese for me on a Kaiser roll. He had the pulled pork sliders on 3 gorgeous little buns topped with coleslaw and a tangy sauce. Side of slaw and pickles for him. In nice weather it's great to sit outside at the very clean picnic tables surrounded by well-maintained plants. We were still sipping left over morning coffee from home so I can't speak to what drinks they have available. Staff were polite. Food was well cooked, artfully constructed and they brought our lunch out to us at a table. A local find here in Branchburg on 22E that deserves your business!

    Branchburg NJ, U.S.A. I'm here for a two day shoot and I realized, there's a lot of noth'in 'round here. Or, at the very least you have to Travel for 12 miles to get... whatever. Luckily, I eyeballed "Grandmas" on my way to the job site yesterday and vowed it to be my breakfast spot for my shoot day. Check out the pictures, it's ALL me ! And when I walk in this morning, I was greeted by the most "Good Morning-est" smile I could ask for. Okay, I decided, here's my test breakfast: Ham & Swiss omelet Home fries Side of sausage Rye toast I grab a coffee and take an end seat at a table. Grandmas has two tables and a counter facing out for you to watch automotive misdemeanors at a pace you only see in NJ. I pinched a newspaper and get one article read and breakfast is served by my cheerful friend... All of my breakfast was the best, cooked with attention and done properly, thank you Grandmas. Grandmas is a funky little place, my kinda place. It's got character and charisma, painted a bright green and a VERY extensive menu. I hope someday I'm back in the area to visit Grandmas, cause there ain't noth'in else here... but GRANDMAS !

It's a true hole‑in‑the‑wall diner with an almost comically extensive menu -- the kind where you wonder how they manage to cook everything well, and then they actually do. I had the French toast with bacon, and it was the kind of breakfast that makes you briefly reconsider every life choice that led you to eat anywhere else.

Be brave, be bold, and wander into The Little Place. You'll walk out full, happy, and wondering why you didn't come sooner.

Hot Rod's does not have a Texas wiener on their menu but they have all the toppings necessary (mustard, raw onion, chili) to make one. The chili though is different from what you'd get on a Texas wiener, as there isn't as much meat. I was able to see most of the raw onion whereas they'd mostly be covered by chili on a traditional Texas wiener. I chose the beef hot dog and washed it down with their unsweetened ice tea. Everything was delicious. The staff were very friendly and explained the difference between the beef hot dog (deep fried) and the turkey hot dog (boiled). There's some seating indoors (about 10 stools along a long counter) and a few picnic tables outside for dining.

Grab a bag of fresh crispy fries, sit at their picnic tables and become part of legend. A extra warm day for the end of March, and a perfect day for an up country drive, Hot Rods was the spot chosen as destination. Great choice. Owner at the grill and taking orders, assistant taking care of the deep fryer and putting meals together in bags, wife sitting nearby offering historic commentary on the institution (Giants fan who loves Saquan Barkley even on the Eagles). I ate at one of the picnic tables to take in the sun, breeze and low mountain across the road. I ate a Classic (boiled turkey dog) and Fryer (beef/pork deep oil), both with pickle wedge, chopped onions and yellow mustard). I enjoyed them both, but couldn't tell them apart. The fries were excellent, and I continued eating them long after the dogs were devoured. The joint was humming by the time I left to return south to Bucks County. An hour drive, I rolled down the window to feel the warm breeze on my face. 5 Stars for the 50 years of hot dog authenticity and the grand day they came wrapped in.

A short walk later, I found myself at Destination Dogs, a place I had seen in photographs that suggested capaciousness. In reality, it is smaller.  This is not a complaint, just an observation.  I remember once hearing something about the contents of small packages. At 12:30 the place was full. Packed with humanity and appetite. I was seated quickly, as if someone had anticipated my hunger in advance. From the bar came the sound of construction crews discussing their midday rituals. Apparently this is where they come on Fridays, to repair themselves while they repair the city. It explained everything. Service was swift and attentive, a minor miracle given the crowd. I began with a Scotch egg, an item that seemed to have wandered in from another story entirely. I ordered it for that reason. I had always imagined my first Scotch egg would be eaten in an English pub under low ceilings and older regrets. Instead, here it was. Perfectly crisp, warm, and generous. The universe does not ask for permission. Then came the main event. The menu is an atlas of hot dogs. Domestic. International. Proteins in tube form arranged like possibilities. There is even an invitation to build your own, which I accepted. I attempted to recreate a favorite from Crif Dogs, a thing called the Spicy Redneck. Bacon wrapped dog. Pickled jalapenos. Coleslaw. Simple in theory. Destination Dogs improved upon it in every way that matters. The bacon crisped with purpose. The jalapenos spoke clearly. The coleslaw behaved. The hot dog itself seemed proud to be there. All of this, plus a 16 ounce beer, cost me about twenty five dollars with tip. A small price for order in a chaotic universe. Five stars. Not because perfection exists, but because this comes close enough to make the argument.
