The Hawthorne Diner

"Located at an intersection between Goffle Road and Wagaraw Road, forming a triangle, my partner and I had lunch at the Hawthorne Diner as first-timers. Upon entering, the interior was small and simple, but it had plenty of booths as well as a bar and was clean. There were a few tables in the back where we sat promptly. Their menu had everything one wanted or needed at a typical Jersey diner. There were plenty of breakfast choices, as well as wraps, sandwiches, and dinner options. We decided on something light and went for the broccoli cheddar potato skins and 1/2 tuna fish sandwich combo with salad. Good food is served in a timely fashion and at a decent price. Our server was friendly and attentive. We can recommend this place."

"Ordered the “Big Daddy Breakfast”(Steak, scrambled eggs, home fries and pancakes) and fried calamari. The Fried calamari was probably the worst i ever had. The home fries were mushy with no flavor even with me putting lots of salt and pepper on it. The eggs had no flavor either. The pancakes were alright and the steak was the only DECENT thing i had. The customer service is amazing though. Overall, i would rather get food from the 7/11 across the street in all honesty. Spend your money elsewhere."

"Very nice diner with friendly service. Food was good (we had breakfast). Nicely decorated and seems family oriented. One thing...on the bill there was an "Operating Charge" of $1.17. I don't know what that was for. We paid cash and I didn't bother asking what it was as we don't live near here and probably won't be back too soon. Seems like just another gimmic to rip off the public."

"We moved to the area recently, and we got a coupon of $25 off when we spend $50 or more. So we came to try it out, hoping to find a nice restaurant to bring family and friends. I ordered ribeye steak, it was plain, less than average. You can also tell that the salad wasn’t fresh. When we presented a digital photo of the coupon, they didn’t owner it. Despite the fact that they can scan the code like any other restaurant does nowadays. Plus, the code had our name with our address. Plus the coupon didn’t mention that we have to bring the actual paper. We asked for the manager, and he was very rude not wanting to do anything to help. This restaurant is not worth it in my opinion. Go spend your money somewhere else."

"I've been to this diner several times now and the consistency is appreciated. Good food, served in a timely fashion, at a decent price, by friendly staff that check in and aren't overbearing. There's a simple comfort that I've come to expect when I stop in and this spot provides in ways I count on."
