We came on a Tuesday night for dinner, after checking into legoland. We had the whole dinner to ourselves. Myself and one other adult are gluten free. I had the gluten free linguine ala vodka with grilled shrimps-so good! As was the Pina colada! The kids liked their cheeseburgers and chicken tenders and the other gluten free adult had a brothers burger (burger with mushrooms on top) and said it was really good. For being so close to legoland and having such good food, Im surprised more people don't try this gem! read more

Ordered juices having no idea that they came in different sizes, we were never told or asked what size we wanted. Then we were charged for large juices. I asked management to change the price to small. They grudgingly did so but were surprisingly rude about it. I got a lecture about how I should have known that there were different sizes despite having never been there before and how this was a one-time deal and would never happen again. I was surprised that they thought I would actually be coming again after being treated so rudely. I tried to point out that when a server takes your order and it comes in a different sizes, the server should ask what size you want, especially if you're ordering for a child. It seems like they would rather prove a point than keep a customer. read more

Ordered a breakfast meal online. Order was fast, service was good. The food was good. Coming in to pick it up was smooth and easy, the ambiance was friendly. We order from time to time and have not had any negative experiences with the food or the service. read more

The food is bland -unappealing presentation. Small portions. Nothing has improved. Expensive menu. Take a pass on this diner!

We lost power on July 4th and it was so hot in the house that we decided to give it a chance of going out for dinner. The diner was open but completely empty. We got seated at the table and we were chatting with the waitress, placed out food order. Food arrived fast and it was delicious: we really enjoyed it, listening to the thunderstorm going by. Other guests started to come in and the waitress told us we were their lucky charms!! Amazing service, relaxing atmosphere and good food: we couldn't ask for anything better, except having our power back (it happened but the day after!). read more

While on our way to visit family we decided to stop here and get food for the little human. I expected a diner and was pleasantly impressed with their options. They have an expresso machine and for me that's just amazing for a diner! The food was good and the coffee was great. The employees were very friendly. The restaurant was clean and welcoming. read more

Stopped in for breakfast early this Thursday morning and couldn't have been happier. A well established local diner that is spotless clean , extensive menu and warm, fast, friendly, efficient service. I had the two egg breakfast special with included choice of meats, home fries,Toast and a great cup of diner Joe. My server Heidi, was so attentive and caring and engaging. They have an extensive diner menu with plenty of booths, tables and counter seats. A full assortment of alcohol is available if desired. Drink prices are very reasonable as well. Please support local business and stop in. Thank you, Heidi! read more

There are lots of bowl soup was excellent and the in the sample my wife ordered the chicken was really great.

I can safely so I would honestly recommend this place after looking at all the people that came in all in a rush Get here before six on a Saturday read more

Love this place! The portions are always generous and food is tasty. Service is hospitable and they remember us after coming a couple times and always do small talk which makes us feel super welcomed. We got the meatloaf and penne vodka both delicious. Highly recco if you're in the area for a quick reasonable bite! read more

The New Chester Diner - Homemade meatloaf and Penne Alla Vodka with chicken cutlet - Diners Near Me - Chester, New York

I came here during the week and it wasn't packed at all which was great. I've only been to this establishment when it was just the "Chester diner." so it's been a long time since I've been here. The new Chester diner is your typical diner but was really nice, and clean. The staff were good and took my order right away. I didn't wait long for my food. My food was delicious. So if you are in the area, stop by and have a bite read more

It's expensive enough but if you pay with a credit card they'll "adjust" your bill later. Like almost 20% more in my case.

I've been to the New Chester Diner four times, twice for breakfast and twice for dinner. All four times were fantastic. Remember, it's a diner. The people working are all very nice, the service is good and the food is much better than you get at most diners. Don't confuse it with the diner that used to be in its place. This place is clean and offers very good food. I'm a fan! read more

A few years ago this place was amazing. Sometime after Covid it was sold and became the Nee Chester Diner and it's been absolutely horrible ever since. Service is lacking. The food is barely passable. Strongly recommend that you pass on this place and just go up to goshen diner. But hey at least this place is empty. read more

Driving back to NYC from the Bethel Woods museum (Woodstock) and stopped in Chester for a quick bite. We all had some kind of cheeseburger with various additions, etc.. The place was nothing special even though it's called New, but it was clean and service was quick. Typical diner cheeseburger with very fresh brioche rolls. The 4 stars are for the cheeseburger but I can't speak for anything else. Your mileage may vary!! read more

I am a disabled with a service dog. He is a wonderful dog and clearly wears a jacket showing he is an "Active Medical Service Dog". He is extremely well trained. When we came in and sat down the waitress asked for our dog's ID. We correctly told her that the ADA and New York State Law specifically says that no ID is required. She walked away and would not serve us. Then the manager came over and again asked for the ID. I tried to hand her the law but she refused to take it or even read it. So, we called the Chester Police to help. They came and were excellent. They said they told the manager that they need to become familiar with the laws. We will be reporting this to the ADA and hopefully, action will be taken against them for their illegal actions. We did finally eat. The food was mediocre at best. Then upon leaving we offered the manager the law again and again she refused to accept it. I asked her if she will now follow the law and she said she will do what the owner says. Well the owner does not make the laws. It is pretty clear, that they probably will continue to ignore the law and be hostile to disabled customers with service dogs. When businesses restrict serving the disabled because they have a service dog, it is degrading to the disabled and show no respect to their customers or to the word of law. I hope that everyone even if not disabled will take their unlawful conduct into consideration and go to other places to eat that have respect and consideration for the disabled and actually follow the laws. read more

This place was yummy. We ate great food...delicious eggs ....service was excellent...wonderful little diner.

Not happy with this place the old lady that works there was very rude!! And the young lady was no! apologetic after she makes a mistake! Asked for wings just the drumsticks and they gave me all flat parts, and they not even offer to accommodate the order for their ineptitude! Never again read more

My son and I eat out together once every other week. We went to this diner because we thought the old owners still owned the establishment however we soon realized after entering they did not. It was an old atmosphere and the service was "okay". We ordered a chicken wrap which was awful. The bacon tasted "old" from the morning, there were 10 French Fries on the plate ( I counted them) and there were barely any chicken in the wrap: I felt awful for my son. I ordered a mexican type of salad which had greek olives in it. I cook often and would I never put greek olives in a Mexican salad. The veggies were greasy and tasted strange. I wouldn't recommend this diner. Goshen diner or Monroe diner is certainly overall a better experience. read more

New owners = New & Improved! This diner was always garbage but new ownership in 2024 has righted the ship. The food, for the first time, is GOOD. Service is good. Diner is clean, too. Menu is still greek style but some latin dishes were added. I urge everyone to try out this small family business. It's worth it now! read more

I am very pleased that this diner has re-opened, and with better food than its predecessor. My go to here is a cheddar omelette with well done home fries. Both are delicious. The home fries crispy on the outside with some chopped peppers mixed in. And the omelette -- it's really the exception among diners to not get an omelette that is not overcooked and brown on the outside, but, rather, with softly melted cheese inside enveloped by fluffy eggs all around. Delicious and satisfying. The wait staff is friendly and accommodating. I have also had the tuna salad sandwich: while it's not the most interesting or tasty tuna salad, it is fresh, and tasty enough with the addition of raw onions and pepper on top. It hits the spot just fine when you must satisfy your tuna salad craving The well done steak fries are very good also. read more

From the moment we walked in to the second we left I've never enjoyed being at a diner (except for my childhood diner) so much! I ordered a salad with strawberries, pecans, strawberry vinaigrette, mixed greens and onions and feta cheese! (Unsure of the menu name) but wow ! This salad was full of flavor, very fresh and I could eat this everyday. I do have a sensitive stomach and this food sat beautifully with me! I also had a matzo ball soup & it was temperature ready when it came out, not too hot or cold. After eating at the old place previously this new ownership definitely did some TLC and took it up a notch & did a phenomenal job. If I could recommend a diner it would be this one. Also the bathrooms were very clean, and so was the rest of the building along with good music taste playing! Along with very helpful & kind staff. Can't wait to eat here again. read more

Food is discuting and the people who go there are totally clueless yuppies stick in their own make believe world. Its either the owners are totally clueless that they don't know the simplest thing about food, or they are totally illerate. Ordered a Ceaser Salad and they put Italian Dressing on it. Everyone knows what Caeser dressing taste like, and it was definately italian hands down. No matter how many times we complained they refused to make it right. Trying to deliberately lie to say italian dress was caeaser. Put it on a credit card so that I can dispute being charged $17 for $2 worth of lettuce and cheap dressing that was not ceaser. they can deal with the $35 chargeback fee and their lies. read more

Just had breakfast and am very happy with the variety of foods one can order. They also serve gluten free items! Highly addictive!

Fast friendly service. The food is delicious. I usually get my eggs with sausage and home fries. They do a nice job making coffee. I have yet to have a bad cup there read more

Very underwhelming! The service was horrible. Our waiter was super aggressive. I had to ask him to clean the table since it obviously hadn't been cleaned. He leaned over my plate to clean the table. The food was not hot when it got to the table. This one is not worth a second try. read more

Are you in Chester? Do you need a diner? Go here! Florentine omelet is good. Buffalo wings and fries are too.

I decided to give this diner a try since it was under new management. I visited on a Saturday at about 1pm. It says it was newly renovated and it looks the same as before. We were seated in about 2 minutes. The server was not the best. She was very plain and dismissive. She was walking around talking on the phone when I was trying to get her attention. The food was good not amazing. I ordered the hungry man special. The scrambled eggs were 5/10 but the bacon, french toast were very good. I also ordered a chocolate milkshake which was 8/10. Although after I finished my milkshake, she didn't really offer a water usually they offer a refill or a different beverage. Now, what really baffled me was that while I was eating my meal, the lights started flickering and went out for about 2 seconds. There was also a man working on the ceiling and dust was flying everywhere. I say the food was a solid 7/10. The service was also 7/10. I'd maybe try again but definitely not as good as the Goshen Diner. read more

Great food, service and location. Very clean, wondrous attention to detail exhibited by both staff and management.

the food was a 3/10 and I'm pregnant I was expecting so much more especially for the price the steak not even real steak it was like a philly cheese steak (very greasy and oily ) steak in my sandwich my stomach was messed up for hours after ordered a pineapple juice they gave me a small for 5$ no ice or anything ambiance: as I'm waiting for my food the bussed has the bucket of dirty dishes and half eaten food right in the open and next to my face I was disgusted i definitely will not be coming here again read more
