Nice home town diner, great prices for an ample amount of food. Nothing overly special in regards to the menu, decor or service. Rather quaint and endearingly provincial. Kinda like Mayberry. read more

They have great food. It's a must try for out-of-towners. It's a nice little place that is always packed when it's open. They recently limited their hours and now close around 2pm though. Go early and get some good food for a good price. Waffles and pork roll is my go-to meal there. It is soooo good. They make the best waffles around. They are so big, light, and fluffy that I can't even eat the whole thing and I have to take some to go. The breakfast wrap is so stuffed that it is hard to eat. It is packed with flavor. There are eggs, your choice of meat, and a bunch more in there that it falls right out of the wrap. They know how to make great wraps. The French Dip with fries and a pickle is good too, if you were looking for a more lunch/dinner type meal. The service is great here too. The employees get to know you, and they are really nice. I highly recommend this small diner in the heart of Milltown for anyone. Skip Dunkin' across the street and especially skip Heavenly across the bridge. Make a beeline to Milltown Diner and you won't be disappointed. read more

A lot of food for the money, but nothing to write home about. Better than the East Brunswick diner set, but that's not saying much. Still, if you want a solid basic omelet or burger, you'll do just fine here. The fries might be the one standout, and they do a classic disco version of them here that I'd go back to try. read more

Just wanted to give an update. Haven't been here in a while and as soon as we walked in, noticed they painted! Looks great! Also, the service is great as always. Read some other reviews and don't understand how anyone can say the waitress isn't helpful or friendly. Our service is always pleasant and our food is always delicious. The last thing this place is , is overpriced !! Ludicrous! read more

This place should be renamed "The Mirage Diner" because it doesn't exist. It taunts you via Yelp when you are famished, then disappears, leaving you grumpy and hungry. read more

Tried this place based on the good reviews. The people working here were very nice, but the food was sub par. The pancakes were extremely gummy as the batter was overmixed. The sausages were overcooked. They give you aunt jamaima syrup in a squeeze bottle with a maple leaf sticker on it. The place is cramped and they had a picnic table as a permanent fixture. I can't say I see what all the glowing reviews are for. I wanted to like it, but I did not. read more

Friendly service, great food, and lots of it. A little on the smallish size with all the Covid protections in place but worthy of the early rise or the wait, whichever you prefer. read more

To "Sammad" I've been going to the Milltown Town Diner for A little over 10 years now and my Family and I have never had a problem! The food is amazing everything we have ordered was delicious and the portions are huge which is great to bring home! The service was Great and it's Nice to go into a small town diner where it's so Friendly and Personable. Where you can joke around and have the cook and waitress come out of the kitchen to Greet you and have conversation and still receive your food hot and in a timely matter! I've also know alot of people who have been going there for years and not 1 have had a problem! read more

I've been here twice before with no problems but recently I found a maggot in my food once I opened the box i brought the food back and was given a refund but I am very disappointed with this diner ! The women who issued the refund as well as the cook said that they weren't sure how the maggot may have gotten in the box ! Take what you want from this and be careful ! read more

Quaint little place where the servings are generous (4 egg omelets) and the sides are as tasty as the main entree. I normally request no potatoes or substitute fruit because at most places potatoes are an afterthought but these were delicious! Service is attentive whether you eat indoors or out. read more

Definitely a luncheonette, not a diner. We went for breakfast and everything was very good. The egg were made exactly the way we asked and the food came out fast. All in all a cute little place. The only negative and its a big one: when we walked in we were hit with the smell of a backed-up or not maintained grease trap. We were starving so we decided to deal. This was our first time here so I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt and say it probably doesn't smell everyday....we hope. read more

I'm in here all the time and the food, service, & friendly, unpretentious vibe are consistently wonderful. The coffee is always hot &fresh, the omlettes and club sandwiches are big & tasty,and Santiago, the cook/owner, makes some of the best home fries and French fries around. His Cubano sandwiches are not to be missed. The dinner specials on Friday evenings are a GREAT value. (Ignore that lone obnoxious review; some people can't be satisfied) read more

Been here a few times now. It is awesome. Service is spectacular the staff is very friendly. It is small but very homey. The portions are more than enough considering how inexpensive it is. Big portions aren't enough if it's bad food. They have no problems there everything I've had from breakfast to lunch has been great. This place is a gem. read more

Ehhh, this is a run of the mill dinner in a small town. When I pulled up I was surprised the place was so small. From the outside it looks like it's a bookstore or something. Once inside there are approx. 4 booths and maybe 5 tables. The staff consisted of a cook, barkeep and one waitress. The limited staff isn't really an issue unless one of them decides to chat it up with other customers and ignore you. I'm a breakfast person, so I was excited to try this place. Unfortunately I was underwhelmed. I'm not saying the food was terrible, but it wasn't worth writing a review about. One pro is that they give you a loyalty card and after your 7th meal you'll get $7 off. I'm never going to be able to reap the benefits of the 2 cards I have because I most likely won't be back (but if you need a card let me know and you'll be one step closer to $7 off)! read more

I love this place! I went here for breakfast and had a great experience. The portions are so big and really tasty. It's also not expensive, so you're definitely getting your money's worth. It is a fairly small place, but it suits the town it is in and is really cute. The employees were really nice and provided great service. I definitely recommend this diner to anyone in the area! read more

Milltown Diner - Loaded Omelette and Italian Omelette - Diners Near Me - Milltown, New Jersey

At the behest of my kid sister, who raved about the food here, we came in for breakfast. I was not disappointed in the least. Soft and fluffy chocolate chip pancakes, homemade corned beef and hash, maple syrup at the table and perfectly cooked eggs. It's a hole in the wall you can't miss. Fill the belly, nourish the soul. read more

Came here for outdoor dining the other day. I ordered the veggie omelette and added cheddar cheese. When I got the omelette and began eating it I realized there wasn't any cheese. I cut a hole in the middle to make sure before asking the server to correct the error. At this point I had also ate about 1/3 of my home fries. The server was nice and brought out the correct order however instead of making me a new omelette how I ordered it, they just dissected the old one, put cheese on it and heated it back up on the griddle. Same with the home fries. I find this extremely unsanitary (especially during a pandemic) and will not be ordering from here again. There are much better diners in the area that actually care about your health. read more

Best diner around. The problem with area diners is either they try too hard to be upscale (Edison & Skylark) and are thus too expensive, or they are really bad quality (Menlo Park). Milltown diner is what a neighborhood diner should be. Solid menu, not too big, good prices, quality food for the money. I get breakfast every time I go because.....it's breakfast food. Waffles, pancakes, breakfast meats, breakfast sandwiches are all solid choices. And you can't go wrong with pork roll. Highly recommend this place. read more

The perfect diner for a small town! The French toast and porkroll is my go-to breakfast. The burgers and wraps are a great price for the portion size. Good fries, coleslaw, and pickles. There's not a huge menu like some other diners with 7 pages in a spiral bound notebook but it still leaves you with tough decisions. Parking is street parking but there are multiple parking logs across the street with a crosswalk that has flashing lights for pedestrian safety. Last I went and tried to split the bill, there was a credit card minimum. I hope you enjoy it! read more

I am here every Friday with my 96 year old grandma. They are so family oriented and they have not only have my grandmas meatloaf dinner for the evening ready , but they pack a to go for her lunch the next day!!( which BTW is same size as her dinner!! ). They do this every week... then my grandma and I share a nice big bowl of icecream.... which I don't think that we ever paid for!!! The waitress is awesome.. the few times that I could not make it to dinner with grandma, she DELIVERED her dinner to her house.. anyone that would write a bad review obviously, has not been there enough to form a nasty opinion... I love Milltown Diner and the crew that work there!!! read more

Milltown Diner - Diners Near Me - Milltown, New Jersey

This diner is the best around. Small place with a personal feel and great food. I haven't had anything here that I didn't like. The bacon omelet is my favorite. It's loaded with bacon and the home fries that come with it are the best I've had anywhere. Also the prices are below the norm for the area which is a bonus! I just wish they were open later on weekends. I usually call to make sure they're open because sometimes they close early if there aren't any guests. read more

This place has a Spartan and cramped feel with an exceptionally nice highly waitress . The food is okay, but nothing truly landmark. The cook is truly capable but I have never walked away thinking "I need to come here more often " . read more

This was an okay restaurant ! A small town diner with big portions of food . Food was okay, nothing out of the ordinary. The waitress was nice and formal. But, not a diverse restaurant. People starred at my mother for speaking Spanish and looking really uncomfortable that we were there. A little racist I would say. I won't go back ! It's not that serious or good. read more

This place is awesome. You will get an insane amount of food for a great price and everything I've ever had is top notch. The pancakes, sandwiches, omelettes, you name it. Extremely consistent. The place is always clean and service is prompt. This is definitely more a luncheonette than a diner though. They close before dinner time which can be a bummer sometimes. I know this is a little short but doesn't a 5 star really speak for itself? You will not be hungry or disappointed. read more

This small diner fits perfect into the small town it resides in. The food menu is by no means small, they have a large selection of sandwiches and dinners. You can't beat the prices for the amount of food you get. The staff is very friendly and the place is filled with regulars. If you like the small town feel and a place where everyone knows your name, then this diner is for you. read more

Hit the spot for a last minute lunch place during the week. Small joint with fast service and great food. All the usual diner food options and the waitress was nice. read more

This place isn't bad for a quick breakfast or lunch. There was definitely a weird smell as soon as we walked in, but it was't unbearable. My friend and I got seated right away followed by immediate drink orders while we looked over the menu. It was a Sunday morning around 11, so we opted for lunch instead of bfast. We both set on french dip sandwiches, but when we went to put the order in the waitress informed us they were all sold out of roast beef. Major bummer, but she told us she'd give us a few more minutes so I decided on the country chicken panini and my friend got a patty melt. Both stated they came with FF, cole slaw, pickle, and a cup of soup. When we asked what soup came with it, the waitress stated they don't serve soup on the weekends. So I asked if they substitute something else for it then, like a house salad, and she said no because its like a complimentary thing usually and they don't have to give it to you the owner just has it on there and they have to change it on the menu. It was the weirdest response and her tone was kind of rude as if I was asking her to give us extra food for free, instead of trying to figure out what they're advertising on the menu to come with the meal. They do give you a lot of food, however the "chipotle mayo" that was on my sandwich was just franks red hot and mayo mixed together, not chipotle at all, which was disappointing because that was the real seller for me on ordering it. The coleslaw was more creamy and sweet than I prefer, but it was a nice crunch mixed with my sandwich. I have to say, the fries definitely were perfectly crispy and salted. They seemed like they were double fried to get them to that perfect crispness. My friend did enjoy his sandwich, however we had to ask the waitress to refill our drinks a couple times even though we were only one of 3 tables taken in the place. I'd like to say we might've walked out of there with a better experience if we went during the week when they actually serve soup and have the roast beef available, but I'm not sure that will change the service. read more

They would NOT make me decaf coffee. A diner refusing to make coffee. Go figure. They were probably 20 minutes from closing on a Sunday afternoon and they refused to make a fresh pot. I'm OK with that, I guess, but my wife was not. So I say "I'll order food and run across the street and grab a cup from Dunkin Donuts". The owner replied "we don't allow that". So I say "you won't make me coffee AND you won't let me go get coffee. WTF". We up and left shaking our heads. Needless to say, we will never be back. Btw, the place is dirty and smelled funky. The food? Who knows. Who cares. read more

Just dropped off our daughter at Rutgers and we were looking for breakfast and found this fabulous diner. The food was excellent. I had a feta spinach omlette with homefries that was so delicious. My daughter had the blueberry pancakes that were amazing! We will definitely be back. read more

The salmon was cooked to perfection. The service was fun and attentive. An overall great experience

Food was ok you can tell everything came out if a can. Food not worth going in for plus I found it a little un tidy.

I love this place. It's more than great diner food...generous portions and interesting selections. Its the fun people that work there. I've never gone that I didnt have a great time as well as a good meal. read more

The food here is oh so good! The club sandwich was huge with the best turkey I've ever had on a sandwich. Everything tasted fresh and was cooked to perfection. The roast beef was tender and the gravy was delicious. The chicken noodle soup was served at the perfect temperature and the large cup was filled with tender chicken, lots of noodles and veggies-highly recommend getting the soup! Nice variety of burgers, sandwiches, kids menu and dinner specials. Staff was very friendly and everything was clean. Not a big place but could handle a group and has counter service. Lucky for the Milltown residents, they also deliver. Family members go here for breakfast and they highly recommend it. If you are looking for really good food at a reasonable price, this is the place to go. read more

Good food, large portions and GREAT service! Louise keeps everything moving and doesn't miss a beat. She gets you what you want fast and if she really likes you, you get it with a side of good humored attitude! I go every week for breakfast and her tell it like it is humor is the cherry on top of this great little local place. read more

Food was just okay to put it mildly and over priced. The waitress was cold as the orange juice, just wasn't pleasant at all. Didn't even check on us not once! Watched the her making toast with bare and more than likely dirty hands. I'm all for small town diners but some things are a given. The cook and bus guy was pleasant. Will not be returning. read more

Terrible diner, terrible service, terrible attitude and virtually NO aesthetics whatsoever. Recently moved to Milltown and like to patronize local establishments. First time we went for sunday brunch they wouldn't serve us because they close at 3pm and it was 2:45. Okay- it's a small establishment. Today we went at 1:15 and they refused to serve my husband a cup of decaf because they didn't want to make a whole pot- AND wouldn't let my husband go across the street to get one at Dunkin Donuts!! Seriously? Its no wonder there were only 2 customers in the whole place. Try another diner. read more

Good food that is typical Jersey diner fare. Friendly staff. Eat there or get delivery either way your food is consistent and good.

Great local diner. Large portions, good food, friendly atmosphere. it has become the place to go for us when we have breakfast. Have also had lunch and dinner there and the portions are just as large and just as good. It's great to support a local business. read more

Great food and service! I've frequent this establishment for many years. Always a great experience
