Its a terrible thing to find out that the diner you have patronized for years and on a daily is so disrespectful of your BLACK DOLLAR!!!! Tonight a friend and I went to have a quick meal at the Broadway Diner not to be confused with the one on 8th street in Bayonne. He ordered an open Turkey Sandwich with Mash and Gravy and I ordered a simple bowl of Chicken Noodle soup. The waitress's passive aggressive attitude gave the night a bad start. The soup came back ice cold and when I asked her to nuke it which takes 3 mins tops.....well lets just say my friend finished his entire meal and she waited on a table of more than 12 people and walked back and forward pass my table looking me in the face. This part is Golden...I went to complain to the Manager another idiot who wanted to give me the soup for 50% less than cost. I told him I want to pay for my friend's meal and leave because I was completely turned off. I'm giving you my hard earned Black Dollars at least 4 times a week and you decide I deserve a sloppy back handed apology. Won't be eating there again! Never know how people view your Blackness until shit happens!!!! read more

If your looking to grab a bite after a long day of work just to be ignored by the staff then this is the place.

Solid diner experience and service was fast and pleasant. Coffee is pretty good. They claim to have the "world's best pancakes" - maybe not in the world per say but definitely delicious and fluffy! The spinach and feta omelette was quite good. Sausage is good quality - I recommend getting that over the bacon as a side. Overall a decent diner. read more

Broadway Diner - Fetty Alfredo - Diners Near Me - Bayonne, New Jersey

Went in for some coffee and pie. The coffee was decent. I'd asked for the lemon meringue pie but sadly, they were all out. I thought it was weird because it was the middle of the day. They told me they had banana cream pie so I ordered that instead. It was just plain awful. It'd tasted like whipped cream and banana pudding mixed together. There was more whipped cream than actual pie so that was a disappointment. And the banana cream tasted like it was about to expire. It was not creamy at all. Just thick and rubbery like glue. My check came out to four dollars but I tipped my waitress a $5 because she looked like she was having an off day. read more

My husband and I are regulars at this diner. After years of dining with them, tonight we found a dead fly on a pickle. We notified the waitress and asked her to notify her manager which she did. She was very apologetic but the manager never came over to acknowledge nor apologize to us. We paid full price for our meals and left. We'll definitely reconsider dining here again. read more

My friend ate with her husband, found a hair on the food and they were told no one has long hair in the kitchen. Not even apologizing,to top it all offered a cup of coffee.Too bad read more

Nice & simple place. Decent food for an affordable price and decent service. This is a place to go to any day just for a quick breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I recommend checking it out at least once. read more

This place far exceeded expectation for a 24 hour diner. The quality and taste was amazing and the price is low. A total surprise. I had the Tuscan Chicken and it was very good meat, produce and bread! The staff was exceedingly friendly! read more

I got the salmon with mango and it was amazing. Best salmon I've ever had. The waitress was very attentive. Super nice. And all around a great place to eat at. I'd definitely recommend it. read more

I was here on Sunday with my aunt to eat lunch. This place was always our favorite when I was growing up. Waitress here was busy and asked my aunt to help w hot plate of soup. My aunt went to help and grabbed the plate, then realized it was way too hot-- burning temperature. To avoid spilling the hot plate of soup in top of her, she helped the waitress put it down. Her hand immediately swelled up red and the waitress just apologized. I could tell she was sorry but tried to explain it away by saying how busy she was. I had to ask for ice for my aunts hand. We told the manager on the way out about the incident and he just says yes the plates are always hot. You could tell he wasn't going to do anything about it. Next time this will happen to a not so forgiving person and it will be a problem!! Owner should make sure the kitchen is keeping the plates hot but not risking either staff or customer safety. My aunts hand blistered and we had to stop on the way home for burn cream since it was too painful to drive. What a nightmare. read more

The worst chicken caesar wrap and waffle fries I've ever eaten.

This spot is 24hrs although most of the time I go late night lol. Staff there are extremely friendly, waitress always on point with my order. 16 oz steak, loaded mash, steamed broccoli with a side salad or soup is one of my favs here. Trust me you'll leave with the itis lol read more

Love this diner - although they just up and switched to Pepsi products which seriously affects my decision to attend a food spot. So instead of several times a week - will switch to once a week or less. Food is consistent, service is good when you get the right server. Ask for Carlos. read more

I've been going to Broadway diner for many years. But never in my life did I experience what I experienced tonight. I came with a friend, and we had ordered our beverages and a plate. Granted, we sat in for over 3 hours, chatting and eating, not talking loud or being disruptive. Suddenly the waiter told us to move to a smaller booth because "it was getting busy." When we look up, they sat two other people! Meanwhile, not all the tables were filled in the entire restaurant! Second, our receipt was taken from us and we were charged $3.00 extra! When I confronted the manager, he said we sat for too long and we were getting charged "additional convenience service." Yet no one ever told us that we had a limited seating time! I won't be coming here for some time. read more

Fancy Shmancy,,,,id say not...but an impressive local diner for certain. Matters not if its a bowl of cheesy dripping French onion soup for lunch or the stereotypical 2am Disco Fries and eggs over , its always tasty. Now kids ...lets talk pancakes....they are the best in all of Bayonne . I Know.. I Know.. I Know .. the signage reads "The Worlds Best" regardless I find myself quite the happy camper just knowing they are the best in my neighborhood. I have repeatedly made my appearance here over years and have no intentions on stopping any time soon . So my dear readers to recap....very good food, fair prices, delightful service, classic diner motif, all its missing is a veteran waitress named Alice and a old cigar smoking chef named Mel. Love this place. read more

Cold chewy calamari. Lousy server. Sad food. This place probably exists because it has been there for a long time. Landmark, sure. Food quality--frozen walmart food is better, in my opinion. read more

How many stars do you give to a diner that reminds you that syrup isn't suppose to be runny, fresh squeezed orange juice doesn't come from a Tropicana carton, well done bacon means the fat is cooked & not raw, the many choices of pancakes & omelettes & burgers, also the service was great & the food came out hot ... I only gave 4 stars bcuz no one's perfect ... I'll be back!!! read more

BEWARE. I've never eaten at their restaurant and wanted to check them out since, as a result of Covid-19, they erected an outdoor walk up and take away menu for the community. The menu looked AMAZING, the food SUCKS. Yesterday, I purchased the fish, shrimp & fries and a half rack of ribs. When I returned home (10 minute drive) I noticed that some of the fish was undercooked and the fries were undone. Upon return, and before getting my money back, I was told that due to the wrapping of the food in aluminum foil, the food had sweat which is why the dish looked the way that it did. I suggested that they not use foil to wrap the food and to maybe use wax paper to avoid the issue of sweating. My issue was that the food was not fully cooked. I could have gotten really sick behind eating undercooked food. When I returned hone to enjoy the ribs & rice all I will say is that my dog had a really nice meal. I DO NOT RECOMMEND BROADWAY DINER as a place to dine, in or out. read more

Place was surprisingly good. Went there at 2 am for food. Disco fries was sooo good. Sausage and bacon panini was really good too. My chicken tenders was ok, nothing special. Waitress was really nice and had a sense of humor. Will come back if im ever in bayonne. read more

While the BF and I were house hunting...we came across this diner. The meal was not only QUICK, but it was AWESOME! I had a Chicken Caesar wrap with frenchfries (and it came with 2 onion rings). Really good! It came fast and it was yummy! My BF had Buffalo Chicken Sub. He really enjoyed it! We were stuffed till after dinner! WE had no room for desert! Our waiter was awesome too. Typical diner set up, clean bathroom and booth style eating. read more

The food here is usually pretty good but the rating I gave is due to the service and price I received today on my takeout order. I went in around noon and ordered mozzarella sticks and a chocolate shake to go. I sat around for about twenty minutes which isn't the biggest deal but felt a little long for just mozzarella sticks. When I received my milkshake it was smaller than the size of my hand, at the price of over $4! My total charge was $11 and I couldn't believe they charge full price for what is probably half the drink served if eating in (picture uploaded to Broadway Diner page) . When I mentioned it to the waitress, her only comment was that this is the normal size they always gave with an "I don't care attitude" at that. This is normally my go to diner because its so close to home but I'm not willing to continue coming here at that price for sub par service and receiving less just because of taking out. read more

Broadway Diner - the size of a $4 milkshake to go - Diners Near Me - Bayonne, New Jersey

The advertise the worlds best pancakes and if they aren't they are very close. I couldn't believe how delicious they were. Also, their Sunday Italian buffet is really good. The meal includes a salad, beverage and desert. The price is reasonable and the food is authentic. read more

Okay I went today to this place, first time ever and perhaps my last one. First the table were they sent us was still dirty, there was an old man who brought glasses of water to the table and I said good morning and he didn't even answer... Oh well, our server ; young lady I'm sorry but you have no people skills, she looked half way asleep, like I felt bad for her. The food : I ordered an omelette my cheese wasn't even melted, the home fries looked terrible, toast were cold, overall really bad. As a Restaurant General Manager for 13 years I can say this place has a lot of opportunities. read more

Well. I come here on a regular basis. Tonight I came in and no one sat us. We sat ourselves. I sat down for 4-5 minutes then got up and got my own water. While I was getting it at the machine the busses cam over and grabbed a glass and stuck it in the ice to fill the glass. I told him that he needed an ice scooper to take ice out of the bin and he laughed although I was being very serious. When I sat back down he gave me the cup with the ice he just scooped. This place gets worse everyday. It's amazing. They are lucky they are the only place opened all night. read more

I'm basing this on todays breakfast only. Sunday morning bacon and eggs, home fries rye toast. One word terrible! How hard is it to make bacon and eggs. The bacon was cold and dried out. Probably cooked last night. Home fries were limp no flavor and under cooked. Thi s used to be a great breakfast dont know whats going on now. VERY BAD! read more

food always slammin, esp when i'm drunk lol. I've had their shrimp scampi, their chicken franchese, their wings, other pastas, eggs & corned beef hash... mmmmm always delicious. tonight I had one of their burgera with avocado & salsa on the side! yum! and they have the best french onion soup of all diners... mmmmmm this place has made history in Bayonne, NJ, even had their beef brisket as a tot.. yummm ..! read more

lots of Bayonne locals eating tons of food. my burger was ok. that's about it. it's Bayonne, NJ...how good or bad can it be? read more

This is probably my favorite diner in the whole world, and I've been to a lot of diners! Love their gyros and their creamsicle!! Their French dip is pretty good too. Wouldn't recommend the burgers though read more

Oh, another late-night experience. Bayonne used to have five diners, and this was not the best one (that was Tops, midtown, and they screwed you big time, Mike). Still, after the town changed and new crowds came and went, the Broadway Diner survived and thrived. Very good food, that gastronomicon of a menu, and very good to great service. Lots of cops coming in and out means it's pretty well covered for security; the fact that some eat here off-duty (and pay!) means it's good food. read more

My go to diner in the area. Very good pricing, always seated fast, even on hectic days. I will continue going for as long as I live in the area! read more

We hit this place after an early morning drive from DC. I really was not expecting anything great from a Jersey diner. Boy was I surprised. I had the eggs florentine and hash browns . . . Amazing! The food had so much flavor. You can always judge a breakfast joint on how the hash browns are cooked, not too crispy and not too soft. These hash browns were perfect. Oh, and the food was served fast and was inexpensive. What a great way to start what turned out to be a shitty day in NYC! Should have ended the day where it started . . . At the Broadway Diner! read more

Stopped in here for a bite to eat on Sunday with my boyfriend on our way to see the 9/11 Memorial in Bayonne. We sat at the bar tabletop. My boyfriend ordered the apple pancakes and a side of cornbeef hash (I tried the hash and it was good -- reminded me of Spam and I liked the crispy parts). I ordered the Ongo Burger, medium rare -- it has cheese, mushrooms, and crispy onions, and came with a side of waffle fries, pickle, and cole slaw. The burger was very good. The service here was very friendly and attentive. The menu is extensive (I saw people eating burgers, salads in large taco shells, beef, turkey and gravy). Great place for diner food! read more

This place is good in a pinch. Even then, I would probably go somewhere else. I have been there twice recently and both times the food wasn't spectacular. The coffee is terrible--it is like drinking hot water that the coffee beans ran through. The first visit I had an omelette. It was pretty good-nothing special. Homefries were scary looking. Second time I decided to try the "worlds best pancakes" and they tasted like bleach. Ick. I would recommend taking the drive to JC to eat at the Brownstone Diner. read more

This place has the slowest service I have ever had. I have been waiting for 45min for a BLT... Ugh!!! The place is busy but its a BLT for crying out loud.. read more

We ordered urban burgers & ice teas. The burgers were ok but nothing to brag about. Were kinda dry. Waffle fries were good. The services was a little too slow. And getting the bill was even slower. Waitress was friendly but far & few between. Area wasn't bad. The place needs an update. Ceiling had leak marks all over it & the floors were cracked bad. The outside of the building was fine. read more

I was in the area the other morning and I was meeting a guy I work with so we were looking for breakfast. We went here and I couldn't believe how cheap the prices were. I was worried about the potential quality based on prices but I was wrong! The food was great! We each had 3 eggs, meat, home fires, toast and coffee and the bill was $14 for both of us. I will be going back!!!! read more

Good food. Only issue I had was the waitress gave me an attitude when I sat down at the counter. It them almost 5 minutes to get a menu. Then another 5 minutes for them to place my order. I could have gone to Burger King across the street but didn't feel like eating fast food. I'm happy I don't come to this area very often. read more

Broadway is my local diner. It's pretty much the go to spot for the people who live in Bayonne since they are open 24 hours. Conveniently, it is very close to my house. Inconveniently, this place is not consistent. I've noticed there are times of the day that the staff works more efficiently and the food tastes better. I usually order the same thing, but it tastes different every time. I would say that the portions are very generous. I always leave satisfied since the prices are great too. Unlike other diners, you get what you're asking for. They have a huge variety of items which taste great. I usually order the bacon chicken panini. This combo included a pressed panini, grilled Chicken, avocado, bacon, and Swiss. It also come with fries and onion rings! The last time I went chicken is a little on the dry side, but overall it was decent. I wouldn't really recommend this diner unless you're looking for something open late. read more
