There's really nothing better than looking out over the water while you eat. Their breakfasts are especially delicious--honestly worth the trip all by themselves. In the summer, sitting outside with a breeze off the water and some live music makes it even better. It's the kind of local spot you keep coming back to, whether you're grabbing breakfast or lingering over a relaxed meal by the inlet.

And I can say we've never had a bad meal here. When you walk in the service is great and everyone greets you with kindness and joy. The way it waiters/waitresses are very professional too and they take their time with getting to know your order. The breakfast is incredible, and the lunch and dinner specials are excellent as well. Everything is made fresh and to order. My wife went here with me, and she loved it. They have a good selection of desserts too if you're feeling that as well. And they even give the option to order takeout. If you're down by the shore and near the Little Egg/Tuckerton area, stop here for a meal, you won't be disappointed at this diner. It's one of the best in South Jersey.

Located on the Long Beach Blvd, coming into LBI, the outside is colorful with their flowers and parking right out front along the curb. Large food portions. Ordered the Moonstruck Omelette with added turkey bacon, had leftovers the next day. Hubbie ordered the BLT sandwich and he was happy with the generous amount of bacon in his sandwich. Also ordered the milkshake Flo's Diner Retro which was pure joy.

The decor was seaside diner. Ordered at our table...a large western style omelette, fluffy and full of the extras, a French Toast egg sandwich (clean plate club), a plate with a pancake, over easy eggs, home fries and toast, all cooked perfectly. I had the triple decker grilled cheese with bacon and tomato (I think it was called the Happy Waitress), so good, bacon perfect. Recommended!

You don't want to miss the funky and eclectic offerings and "if you're here you're family" atmosphere. Our first visit was for a late breakfast at about 11am on a rainy Sunday of a holiday weekend, so it wasn't surprising that the was a short wait. When the hostess said 20-30 minutes someone else in line immediately responded "it's worth the wait" and I agree. I had the The Waffle Slamwich "alternating layers of bacon, sausage, pork roll, egg & cheese between Belgian waffles with bourbon butter maple syrup." I ordered has browns because I saw an order come out and they looked really good. They were, but we're also unnecessary. The Slamwich was more than enough and I'm a big eater. My wife had French toast and a side of bacon. The portion was also generous but she ate it all som it must have been good. I forgot to ask because I was so busy enjoying the many flavors of my meal. The sweetness of the waffle and syrup perfectly offsetting the salty breakfast meats. Coffe was good, too, and obviously fresh. And my cup was 'magically' refilled every time I set it down. We're planning a trip back for lunch...but not today...still full. Guy says "if it's funky I'll find it" but do yourself a favor and find Lacy Diner first, before word gets around, or you might not get a seat.
