    This place is a hidden gem. Small but very good. The service is right on point. The only problem with this place is around 9:30-10 they tend to get busy and have a wait. If the wait is not long don't bother waiting outside they might forget you. Happened to us today. Didn't want to crowded the door. Overall the place is clean and friendly. Will come back. I've ever had lunch here but the breakfast slaps lol.

    My partner and I had the rare opportunity to enjoy breakfast out and decided to visit Big Apple Cafe. The service was quick, the food was good, and the menu gave us the old-fashioned country diner fare we were hoping for. I ordered the breakfast burrito with hash browns and my partner got the diner breakfast (eggs, toast, sausage, hash browns) and two pancakes. Everything was tasty. The burrito was packed full with lots of peppers, onion, and sausage along the scrambled eggs. The cafe breakfast was exactly as it should be, and the pancakes were light, a bit spongy but also fluffy, and huge. We both found the hash browns, which are shredded potatoes fried on the griddle, to be underwhelming. Next time, we'll probably opt for the home fries, which are sliced potatoes that are seasoned and griddle-fried. I'm also looking forward to trying their lunch foods in the future. The place is pretty small, so I can imagine it gets pretty packed on the weekend!

    Great food & super friendly service! We were in town for the Night Ranger concert last night. My husband & I love finding "Mom & Pop" restaurants when we travel & this came up in our search. The restaurant is located in a building that apparently houses and auto auction so it can be hard to find, but it is definitely worth it! When we walked in, we saw a couple tables of the old locals enjoy the breakfast and we knew that was a good sign. We did not catch the name of our server, but she was , a sweetheart, and extremely efficient. Their home fries are to die for! I had the ham & cheese omelette. Everything was delicious! The next time we are in town, we will definitely be back.

    Found it to be overrated. Food was not what I would expect for the price. There are better places for breakfast at better price ion Newark.
