My husband had the burger and I had a fish sandwich. Both were cooked to perfection. Also, the fries had a great seasoning. So good, ketchup wasn't needed.

We highly recommend the Hungry Diner!

Recently we were astounded by their prices -- which included a hidden "cost of employee living" surcharge of $5.00 in addition to the 18% tip we left for a hamburger stand type of meal. I realize their meat is probably local but be prepared to pay a hefty price.

It's 2025, debit cards are prevalent there shouldn't be a surcharge, it's ludicrous. Although they do have a drive up window which is convenient, their timing isn't always great and they ask you to drive around and do laps until it's ready. There are some strange things. If you order a cheeseburger grinder it's made with meatballs. If you order a cheeseburger it's actually a cheeseburger. Also it is completely inconsistent. Never order there on a Sunday, it's quite obviously their b team and the quality is never good. Unfortunately no consistency, and now with higher prices leading to less value It's just not a choice in this area that I would make.

It's a little pricey but it's a very good burger, could you used a little more seasoning, but it's a large tasty burger. Last I had a side of fries, which I could confidently say with a best fries I've had in years. Drink it all down with a Mexican Coke. Overall I definitely recommend this location and will definitely be back to try some other things on the menu.

Excellent French onion soup! Great food & service. Best of all this restaurant gives back, they offer a senior citizen, first responder, police & a veteran discount. There is a beautiful story about the name of the restaurant & a portion of the proceeds goes towards Boston's Children's Hospital.

The spot is located in a humble building downtown - a good size but not huge. Pretty ideal for the type of service they offer (order at the counter & they bring the food to your table). The service was great and the place was well kept & clean. The food was outstanding. I got the chipotle chicken panini; fresh ingredients and a great sized sandwich. Their Belgian fries are seriously out of this world, not to mention their amazing dipping sauces to go with them (I myself had maple mayo and curry ketchup, both awesome)!! Their prices are also very reasonable. With everything raising in price lately, it's not uncommon to be spending a ton even on a quick lunch nowadays. This place keeps the cost reasonable for the times while still providing good portions and quality ingredients. They are also extremely "gluten free friendly" for anyone curious. I plan to drive back up to Keene in the very near future, based around having Fritz again!!
