Food was fast, so was the wait I loved how it didn't take long to get our food!!! Our waitress Olivia was the absolute sweetest! Also the design of this place is so comfortable. In the entrance there were vintage ads and comics absolutely genius! read more

Despite having very good food, there is no excuse for ordering takeout 90 minutes in advance and keeping a customer waiting for 30 when they arrive. An outrageous wait time for one sandwich. If the kitchen is too busy to accommodate takeout then put a stop on those orders until they've caught up. This happens to me every time I order. The hostess was snappy and borderline rude. It's just not acceptable. Maybe they've gotten too big. Maybe they've forgotten that when the tourists leave the locals will still be here working 3 minutes away and ordering takeout. No excuse for it and I probably won't go back. I've worked in the industry for my entire adult life and this is exactly how you lose customers. read more

Like a lot of other people, I came here after a weekend of hiking. I really love the the atmosphere of the diner, they have awesome decor including an airplane hanging above where we were sitting. The service is pretty good for a diner and the waiters were helpful in checking in to make sure we had everything. They have a pretty standard menu for all your diner needs. I got the country fried steak, which comes with toast, eggs, and home fries, which was plenty enough to fill me up. I also got a strawberry frappe, which was a great drink along side my meal. read more

Stopped in on our way home from Lake Winnipesauke and we weren't disappointed by the classic diner fare. Definitely something for everyone on the menu!

Tilt'n Diner - veggie omlet with egg whites - Diners Near Me - Tilton, New Hampshire

This restaurant is a great place to stop for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The interior decorations are a hoot. The food is tasty, and the portions are generous. The Clam Chowder, sweet potato fries, pancakes, etc are excellent. We always stop by for a meal when we are in town. Very convenient to the highway, and the outlets. You will not regret pulling in. read more

Horrible first experience. We got seated next to the kitchen and we could see and hear everything. Flys flying around the unopened containers with mayo and pickles. I ordered the fried chicken and got the fried steak. The waitress apologized and had the kitchen remake it. 10 minutes later the kitchen crew makes ANOTHER steak. When I finally received the chicken ( what I originally had ordered ) by this point I'm disgusted with all for the flies flying around us and the food so got a to go container and ate my meal in my car in the parking lot. the waitress told me she took the meal off the check and she was sorry. Don't worry,she took off the steak she entered in wrong,not my meal!!! Felt like I was on a prank show. GROSS. read more

Tilt'n Diner - Flys were so bad inside, I'm eating in my car outside. - Diners Near Me - Tilton, New Hampshire

I have been coming here ever since I was a peanut in a baby bucket, my parents have been going to the Tilt'n Diner since it first opened in the early 90s. Every time my family and I go up to New Hampshire, we make it a priority to eat there at least once while we're there, sometimes twice. The food is delicious, the staff are wonderful and the atmosphere is fantastic. I have nothing negative to say about the establishment. Hopefully my family and I will be out in New Hampshire permanently in 2023 and will join the regulars club. read more

Used to be much better. No so much anymore. People are way to packed in. Not much fun with people listening in to everything you are saying. No thanks. read more

Great breakfast diner style. Wide range of foods, something for everyone. Make sure you have them make you a soda!

It really depends what you order in here, I've had good meals and I've had less than best meals; for the most part, the food is average with a friendly staff. I recently had chicken Parmesan and it was good. read more

Second time coming to the diner after a camping trip. People are always in and out, prices are reasonable, large variety on the menu, and the 50's diner theme is cute. Even though there are a ton of tables, there are wait times every once in a while since it seems to be a popular stop for all ages. For $12 I got a refreshing vanilla milkshake, and a patty melt. Have you ever had a hamburger patty with toast!? It's pretty mind blowing especially with the melted swiss, caramelized onions and mushrooms. Huge fan. Opted for fries for another dollar or so vs. chips. My friend got onion rings but I didn't like the flaky batter around the rings so much. read more

Tilt'n Diner - Patty melt, huge fan - Diners Near Me - Tilton, New Hampshire

Love the atmosphere here. We had a filling appetizer and vanilla cokes. They have tons of stuff to look at while you're waiting and the bathrooms are clean which is important to me when I am traveling. You can get breakfast or lunch any time of day which is great! Most of our food this last visit was really tasty but the bread for my grilled sandwich was definitely burnt. Our waitress was wayyy too busy for the amount of tables she had. Usually this place is 5 stars so we will be back for sure. read more

Growing up I used to come here all the time on our car rides up north. I recently came back (about 15 years later) and it felt like nothing had changed...it was still DELICIOUS!! Kids were still hula hooping and you could look at the old records and comics as you waited for a table. Wait time was short and the hosts and waitresses were very friendly. They still have their breakfast all day option which you can never go wrong with. This time I went with chili and the open face turkey sandwich which were both great. I always have a great time at the Tilt'n Diner with my family. This diner brings back great memories of car trips up north and then stopping to shop at the outlets after. They are in a great location! read more

This is a great diner with delicious food at reasonable prices. (Most entrees are under $10. but you'll probably add their onion rings, home made root beer, and a yummy dessert.) Be warned: If you're looking for a quiet, intimate place to sit and chat over an elegant meal, the Tiltn Diner is not it. However, if you want to feel like you've stepped back into the 1950s or early 1960s, the Tilt'n Diner is definitely the place to go. Great food and excellent service make it a worthwhile stop. Expect a crowd at mealtimes, especially during the summer. It's a convenient stop directly off Rte 93 at Exit 20, and I think everyone stops there on their way to the lakes or the White Mountains. Also in the summer, they seem to have a lot of vintage and classic car shows in the parking lot. (The good new is, adjoining parking lots are huge, so you can always find somewhere to park.) For me, their diner melt -- kind of a vintage Monte Cristo sandwich -- is the thing to order. I always add onion rings which are thin, sweet and light, so I can't say if their french fries are good... they probably are. I've never been disappointed at this diner, no matter what I order. I'm on the fence about their home made root beer. Oh, it tastes great and it comes in its own bottle (that you can take home). However, when I last ordered it, the label said that it's sweetened with high fructose corn syrup. I drank it anyway (and liked it) but haven't ordered it since. (Admittedly, I may be eccentric that way.) The noise level is also a little much at times. They're usually playing classic rock & roll and it's loud. So, the patrons talk loudly to be heard over it. Add a couple of fussy children and the din can be distracting. However, the food is worth it. And, generally, I've been able to talk over the ambient noise without shouting. The diner is clean, the service is excellent, and the food is memorably delicious with that old-time, home cooked flavor. If a visitor has never been to the Tilt'n Diner, I always insist that we go there. Everyone has to eat at a classic diner once. (This one was built in 1952, I think, and moved to the Exit 20 location later.) I'd probably give this five stars except that I hardly ever give any business five stars. The food -- especially the melts & the onion rings -- are that good. read more

I was visiting NH for vacation and saw this as one of the places to eat. The food was ok, not the best nor the worse food you ever had, but if you want nostalgic feeling if your childhood or want to live in the past it's a good place to visit. read more

3.5 star diner with a good burger, better fries, and excellent service. Good stop in the Whites to avoid crowds at Woodstock and other exits along 93. read more

It's a diner that's it not expensive but just a greasy diner the seats need replacing and as a whole needs a good scrubbing

We had lunch today at the tilton diner at 1230pm it was ausome I had the BLT sandwich with chips.

Stopped in just before noon on a Friday - place was packed - but there were 2 open seats at the counter so we grabbed them instead of waiting for a table or booth. My dining companion and I both chose the Friday Fish Fry with their regular french fries (you could upcharge for sweet or Orings). We also ordered a cup of chowder and some fried pickles. Chowder arrived first and was thick and hot. The pieces of clams amazed us - so big and plentiful. Fried pickles were close behind. These are chips and were delicious - golden brown breading over a slightly tart pickle, deep fried, served with a side of ranch dressing. Only complaint is the portion was so big - could easily be an appetizer for 4. The fish fry plates were piled with fries cooked perfectly and a huge piece of white fish. We looked at the plates and questioned ourselves on why we didn't just order 1 service to split - again, there was so much. We did manage to finish our fish and our waitress offered us seconds (on Friday's, Fish Fry comes with refill.) Our waitress was Michelle and she was fantastic, patient, friendly, polite and always smiling (even her body language showed she enjoyed her job!) She's what gave them a 5 vs the 4 I wanted to give - Yea Michelle! Total for meal (with 2 lemonades also) was $40. A bit pricey for a diner, but for the quantity and quality of meal, it wasn't horrific. (Tilt 'N Diner is part of the Comman Man chain of Restaurants in NH) read more

I love me some Chicken and Waffles. They were made perfectly, our server was great, I was thirsty with the syrup and waffles and she gave no mind to having to get me three refills and was quick about it. You got the option of real syrup which is amazing additive to my meal. I was greeted quickly and was full quickly. read more

This place had the feel and the groove of a 50's diner. it has good food great atmosphere and fantastic service, We had burgers, they were great. the server was pleasant and helpful about local going ons. My husband had a strawberry MALT . Yes an old fashioned MALT, he loved it. the only reason why it isn't a 6 star was the wait... but it was worth it. Great food, service and a menu that fills the the soul as well as the stomach read more

Be prepared - there will be a wait. Live with the wait and you will be rewarded with good food, friendly service and a dining experience above what's available at the local chain restaurants. The selection is HUGE - and you can get breakfast all day. I opted for Mom's Meatloaf omelet (which was a cheese omelet with a burger patty inside). My sister ordered the open face turkey sandwich and it practically arrived on a platter. It was delicious. My only gripe was how long it took for our food to come out. One item wasn't ready when the rest of the meal came - so we were comped for the item. I was impressed by the offer since we didn't complain or request anything. Our server - Edith - was awesome. On this super-busy day, she was friendly and responsive with every request. She was funny and personable. She set the standard for what excellent service should be like. When I mentioned we had lunch at the Tilt'n Diner to different friends, they all remarked how jealous they were & how much they enjoy visiting this restaurant. You can go wrong with reactions like that. read more

Fun stop on 93 for shopping break or to stretch your legs after long drive. Oldies play in the background while waitstaff makes sure you are comfortable. Good old classics - burgers, fries,sandwiches as well as clams means everyone should find something to enjoy. Kid friendly and reasonable prices make this destination a must read more

I had the Cadillac breakfast with maple sausage which was good, a lot of food I couldn't eat all of the pancakes and toast so I shared with my wife. My wife had the Biscuits and gravy and enjoyed them along with the eggs. read more

Although the staff was accommodating, the food fell short. The simplest eggs were cold and the water tasted metallic. The pancakes were crumbling with every forkful. I was excited for diner food but alas was let down. Best part of the meal was the check, but somehow that came out stone cold too. read more

Great food and great service! Servers are so friendly! We were hungry on the road from NH and been looking for a breakfast place then we bump on this place! Just amazing! read more

we've been a lot for breakfast with no complaints, but dinner there the other night was such a disappointment-- ordered the homemade creamy Mac-n-cheese with pulled pork which was anything but creamy. The Mac-n-cheese was so dry and the pulled pork was cubes of dry pork drenched in bbq sauce and then the entire dish was drizzled in bbq sauce. Not what I was expecting and prob won't return read more

I don't think they were prepared for us, we were taking a bus tour in New England and this was our first stop, I had pot roast with mashed potatoes and vegetables cooked with the meat, and steamed broccoli, everything was under cooked and lukewarm or cold , no bread and I could only get one glass of water, sorely disappointed in the whole affair. read more

Haven't been there this year due to COV19 but used to go all the time. The bike trail will dump you behind the Super 8 and you can cut across the highway though a foot packed trail of brush. Always get the steak and 4 eggs with o.j. and white toast lightly toasted. There is an occasion they might mess up my order but they will quickly correct it for you. And love going through the used comic book collection on the way out. Can't wait to go again when restrictions are lifted to get the full experience. read more

The best buffalo mac and cheese I've ever had. Usually I find buffalo sauce too overpowering in most buff mac and cheeses but this had the right amount of buffalo sauce taste while also being cheesy. The grilled cheese was perfect as well. Great place for comforting diner food. I've been driving past this place for most of my life but never stopped before and I'm glad I did. Will definitely be back. read more

Tilt'n Diner - Diners Near Me - Tilton, New Hampshire

Ive been dying to try this place ever since making the trip up north to the Outlets. They said the wait was going to be 15-20mins, they said us in 5. We had a cute little booth. The ambience is amazing. Every little corner packed with fun things from the past. Menu selection is almost too much to handle --so many choices! Definitely try the strawberry frappe!!!! We had great food...great service! And keep in mind folks... these servers are doing double the job since most are back in school or out with covid. KEEP THAT IN MIND !!! read more

We like the food here. The staff is friendly. Only complaint today, was our waiter forgot to bring us our beverages. Otherwise, great spot. read more

Very helpful mangers and staff! Great food and service always! I was impressed with the want to make sure customers are happy!

Funny and visually appealing decoration all around. Decent quality for a good price. The burger I ordered was everything a burger needs to be. I did not pick a window seat, but the restaurant has quite a view. But the most important aspect of my visit to this captivating establishment, is the cheese sticks. They have earned themselves a spot in the Hall of Fame of Cheese Sticks. THEY DO NOT MESS AROUND. If you do not set upon the task of breaking open the cheese stick manually before putting it in your mouth, you can rest assured that every bit of real estate in that cheese stick is used up. If you ever fear the event of biting on a cheese stick, only to find large bits of terra nullius, you are in good hands at Tilt'n Diner. I was so impressed by this rare occurrence of lack of empty space in my cheese stick, that I documented it by allowing the photons bouncing off it to come in contact with a light-sensitive surface. It is proof. No one would believe me that the cheese sticks are so full! Unfortunately, I do not know how to post photos on yelp reviews or if that's even possible, so YOU'LL HAVE TO TAKE MY WORD FOR IT! read more

Attempted to have lunch 12/27/2022 and the Hostess was very rude. While other customers jumped in front of me and got seated immediately. By the time we got waited on as a party of 3, the hostess stated it was a 25 minute wait. So we said we would wait. She then stated we had to wait outside in the freezing cold while I had a mobility device and would crowd the waiting area. There were multiple empty booths and she neglected to accommodate us. I never felt so discriminated against in a restaurant. read more
