    This is a retro and cool looking diner. I came here for breakfast and it was pretty good. I'd really like to try a burger next time. My california omelet was very good they didnt go cheap on anything like some diners do. Nice portion and lots of cheese. The French toast and pancakes were not bad also. Will be back to try more items.

    I've been coming to Saddle Brook diner for almost 20 years and it's always been awesome. I love their burgers, wraps, paninis, ALL of their breakfast the most can go on forever. Well worth a detour if you're in the area and highly recommend as a plane to stop frequently

    A great place to come and eat! The staff is super friendly, and the food is out of this world. We were served right away and only waited about 10 minutes for our food, even though the place was packed. It’s a very family-friendly environment.

    This diner was amazing! From the moment we were seated, the service stood out—they promptly brought us water and were attentive throughout our meal. We came as a group of eight, and everyone genuinely enjoyed their food. The menu offers a huge variety, with something for everyone. Their burgers are especially delicious, and I personally had the chicken Parmesan sliders. The chicken was perfectly breaded, flavorful, and cooked just right. Overall, a great dining experience that I’d definitely recommend! I will come back for sure.

    Classic diner vibes! I got a fancy Pumpkin Latte that tasted like fall in a mug. Then came Two Eggs over easy with corned beef hash and rye toast. Perfect! My older daughter went classic with ziti and red sauce, while the younger one went all in with three giant sliders cooked perfectly medium rare and smiley face fries (because why not eat food that smiles back?). She’s already planning her next order: same thing, but with cheese. Both girls were too full for the included ice cream, so our server let them pick massive cookies from the pastry case instead. The only downside was a lack of napkins but we made it out alive. NOTES / TIPS: **Tons of parking, plenty of tables **Extremely friendly staff **Wheelchair-accessible **Betty Boop, Rat Pack decor. **Pay up front like a true Jersey diner

    Friends and I went for an end of our college semester brunch. After a few mimosas, laughs, and bittersweet goodbyes this diner has become the home of one of my favorite memories. Awesome food too. Everything was perfect not only for me but all of my friends.
