The chrome exterior was ultra shiny. The nostalgic vibes of the well-kept booths and traditional diner furniture were impeccable (there since 1948!). The service was fast and friendly.

First time coming to this diner. We were greeted and seated right away. The service was great and very quick. I ordered Mac and cheese balls for an appetizer and they were still kind of cold in the middle which made them less enjoyable. I also got the BLTA (bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado sandwich.) The bacon was good and crispy and the sandwich was basic but good. My fiancé got the burger and said it was delicious and well made. The fries unfortunately seemed old and were kind of soggy. It was a very filling meal so we didn’t try dessert this time but there is a huge case of cakes and sweets to choose from!

I have been a customer at Tick Tock Diner for many years. With its convenient location, it has been a favorite of mine since high school. In the past few years, the diner itself has been renovated in order to accommodate more customers, a change in menu, and a pleasing experience. Since its renovation in 2019, Ive noticed an abundance of changes that has altered my experience quite honestly. Since the changes, the customer to waiter relationship has been changed. To accommodate the large number of customers at once, waiters/waitresses don’t have much time to stay and chit chat, an experience that I had always enjoyed. The menu is also significantly smaller than it usually was. Customers only have one singular page, back and fourth to choose from instead of the multiple page pamphlet that was originally offered. The food itself tasted pretty average, as I could imagine the chefs don’t have much time to add personal touches. The prices are also significantly higher than usual, which isn’t an ideal change for a college student on a budget. However, my diner experience still earned a 4 star rating because the atmosphere was still as warm as usual. I was seated immediately upon arrival during lunch time on a Sunday. While we weren’t able to establish a better conversation, the interaction with my waiter was very pleasant. He was very quick to accommodate my 5 person party.

Service was excellent! Our sever was so polite and accurate with our orders. The food was delicious!! We ordered the Mick Jagger sandwich with disco fries w. gravy on the side and the breakfast burger that had Taylor hand and an egg – Both were served as decent portions. Lastly, the vanilla shakes to top it off were deliciously perfect!!! I recommend breakfast here 🙂

Classic NJ diner. Service was great, good was good. And yes Waffle fries!!!! Get off the highway and make this a regular stop. Skip the chain restaurants and enjoy a classic NJ experience. I definitely like their simple menu compared to other dinners, currently found the prices competitive. Give it a try

Stopped here for dinner. Food was very good. I had French Onion Soup and a Cheeseburger with fries. The presentation was very nice. Service was extremely slow, even considering I was sitting very close to the entrance where there was a lot of traffic. After I got my food no one ever came back until I waved someone down for the check. That was frustrating, since I was alone and really just wanted to get on my way once I finished my meal. (More coffee would have been nice, but no one ever asked me if I wanted more).
