Inside, the food was fresh, plentiful, and delicious. We chose side salads instead of fries and they were a great size to start the meal. I had the open‑face Turkey Reuben and the portion was definitely shareable and very good. My husband had the fish and chips and the cod was fried perfectly, 4 nice fillets, crisp outside and tender inside. He swapped the fries for a baked potato and it tasted like it came straight from the oven, hot and fluffy. They offered a long list of specials for 16.99 that included beverage, soup, salad, an entrée and dessert. The cakes and pies looked fabulous and many were ordering dessert. We were too full this time, but next visit we'll save room. Our waitress, Lala, was wonderfu, attentive, friendly and always checking in at the right moments. The manager greeted us warmly when we arrived and again when we left, which added to the friendly atmosphere. Plenty of parking and easy to get in and out. We would definitely recommend this diner and would happily return.

I lucked out because this was right there. Didn't have to waste time going far. I got their chicken sandwich with Swiss and mushrooms they had as a special. Also got the Caesars salad and hash brown. All the food was pretty yummy. Came out pretty quick. I like their restaurant space. I didn't feel like other guests were too close to me. Next time I'm in the area I plan to stop in.

The portions were large and everything was tasty. The cheese bread that we got as a table was our favorite item and we got one to go. Other stand outs bean soup, gyro, and chicken piccata. The only issue was the price was high but alas this is the price these days.

So when I used to work in L'ville and could get Route 1 Diner delivered through Uber Eats it was a treat indeed. I often ordered the turkey Reuben, omelettes, BLTs, fish sandos, and quesadillas. All good but the actual standout here is the STEAK FRIES! They are fluffy on the inside and crisp on the outside. They're the best steak fries by far and possibly a top 3 restaurant fry of all time for me. Even by delivery they arrive crisp. I've since left that job near the diner but when I find myself in the area I can't help but stop in to get the fries. I was actually hesitant to do so at first - kinda like lifting the curtain back on Oz. But there's no trickery here - the waitstaff is friendly in person, the food is hot and fresh, and incredibly priced. This diner is such a gem and I am admittedly jealous of people who live nearby. Def stop in - well worth the trip. Enjoy my pics!

New Madison is a popular charming luncheonette that doesn't look like its changed much in decades…read more I found plenty of parking around breakfast time in the strip mall parking lot, since most of the other businesses were not open. The inside is on the darker side with brick floors and just a few windows at the front letting in some natural light. They have framed pictures hanging on the walls just about everywhere. The counter with stools was a bit tight, but a great spot to sit down and grab a bite. On my latest visit, I sat at a tiny table for two which was fine for flying solo. The booths and tables look much roomier. Food wise I stuck to simple two egg breakfasts. Sunny side up and scrambled with potatoes and I tried the hot sausage which was ground with hot pepper flakes and oil. It was a big portion with the sausage and came to about $14 and change. The eggs, toast and potatoes with no meat was a couple dollars less. Breakfasts included coffee which was a simple diner roast. The staff was friendly and kept stopping over to check on me and keep my coffee topped off. Overall, I liked the ambiance and felt like I had gone back to the 70's-early 80's with the decor and MGK classic rock playing over the speakers. They are cash only, but have an ATM on site. I've driven by the New Madison so many times over the years and I'm glad I finally stopped in. Thanks guys!

Their menu is full of typical diner grub, but they did have crepes on the menu which you don't see too often. I kept it simple and ordered scrambled eggs, rye toast, home fries and bacon on my first visit and scrambled eggs, rye toast, home fries and pork roll on the second. The food came out quickly and was a good portion, hot and fresh. Their coffee was an ok diner roast that drank well black. The bathroom was pretty clean on both visits. Their prices were on average for the area. I would definitely return when going through the area. Thanks guys!
