Old school memories.. stopped by through the town and this place still looks the same. Vintage burger joint with milk shakes and diner food, but more. Tv is an upgrade from 40 years ago. What a nostalgic moment. Ordered the burger special which was great back in the day. The burgers still have that old greasy diner flare. Best after a night of hanging with friends. Great service. The menu has expanded from cheese sticks, fries and burgers, to gyros, souvlakis, chicken parm, steak sandwiches and more. Small place with a big menu! read more

It's a decent place. The prices are cheaper compared to other places, but I don't think the food is worth it based on what I got. I ordered a burger and it felt as if it had no seasoning on it at all. I took a couple of bites at most and left it alone unfortunately. I ordered chili cheese fries as well, and the chili tasted as it came straight from the can, was warmed up, and put on my plate. Some salt and pepper at the very least would have been appreciated on the chili. Cheese was also very bland. I had a better experience eating the small number of fries that weren't covered by the chili cheese. My partner ordered a wrap and he mentioned he enjoyed it more than the burger, but I didn't try it since I lost my appetite considering how bad and tasteless my order was. I did end up going to another restaurant later instead since I was starving. I will say the ambiance and the servers are really nice. I could see they were working hard, despite it being a small place. I would like to come back as I really wanted to give this place an opportunity + maybe it wasn't a good day for the burgers this time lol, but maybe not anytime soon. For anyone interested in trying the place, I would recommend maybe getting something other than the burger and the chili cheese. read more

Ordered a slider with bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato and pickles. Also a quarter pound burger with bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato and pickles. And grabbed a piece of flan to go. The slider stole the show. Next time, I just get sliders. Cute place. Nice hospitality and service. read more

Let's get this out of the way up front: If you're looking for a more classy diner experience then go to Vicki's in Westfield or the Fanwood Diner. White Rose System is built to be a callback to the diners of yesteryear, featuring silver on the outside with a (sort of?) art deco inspired shape while the interior features a long counter with bar stool style seating. A giant jukebox that saw its heyday in (perhaps) the 90's sits (perhaps unplugged?) in the middle across from the counter. Along the back wall behind the counter is the menu (just look up) along with signs printed and tapes to the middle of the counter area. It's a big grungy, definitely very no frills and honestly for me that is part of its appeal. There is a complete lack of pretense at this diner. I have never eaten in the diner, but I have ordered food to go and hung out while they cooked it. The waitresses are always really good about jotting down the orders they get quickly and the chef working behind the counter seems to move at lightning speed. I have ordered from this diner multiple times getting items such as grits, corned beef and omelets with hash browns. The quality is good, a solid B (in contrast I place diners like Vicki's at a firm A) though once the toast I got was very tough (not sure why). If you're looking for some quick "grab and go" food and you're not looking for anything fancy this is a good joint to check out. read more

Affordable and delicious. I called the order in and it was ready when I arrived at the establishment, it is like a throwback, box car diner with the art taking you back years. read more

If you like white castle burgers but would like to forgo the stomach woes this place is for you. It's unpretentious so you may miss it, but if you are a burger enthusiast have to try it. I had two sliders (no cheese) with fries and a soda for about $8. I liked that the burgers were seamed with the tiny onions. I loved that the patty wasn't huge. But most of all I loved the bread. Now it's not the traditional potato bread you may be accustomed to, but it's very very good. Fries were nice and crispy. Not salted which I prefer as the salt shaker was right there. If I had to pick one thing to be fussy about - the ketchup they put out is very sweet. To my New Yorker pallet this seems to be the case for a lot of Jersey sauces so this may be a personal preference. I would love to have the option of hunts ketchup though! read more

Real OG diner vibes and I'm living for it! Everyone I've ever known that has dined here, comes for the burgers. I've only ever been to the Highland Park location, this was my first time visiting the Roselle one. Service is fast. The burger was juicy. They are a smash style burger. If you get onions, they are pressed right into the meat on the flat top. They're served on a kaiser roll. (See photos) *Mine was a cheeseburger, the cheese was just under the patty. Oh, did I mention my total was $3.79?! Crazy affordable! read more

Atmosphere: You cannot get an older diner than the White Rose System. It's a shiny, square, metallic diner, located in the hill. The inside is bar seating only. The White Rose System fits about 20 people and everyone sits on a stool. Coffee: The coffee at the White Rose System is no-frills only. I got a small cup that held about 8 ounces. It was good and it tasted like perfect diner coffee. Food: The White Rose System menu is on the backboard and it's small with no frills. You aren't going to find healthy but you will find their famous Taylor Ham Rolls. I knew I wanted a Taylor Ham Roll with cheese, ketchup, egg, and tomato. I don't typically order Taylor Hams (or Pork Rolls) so it was fun to try something different. It was a great breakfast sandwich and it was exactly what I pictured an old school diner to have. Service: You aren't getting a waitress or hostess at the White Rose System.  The manager takes your order and brings it out to you a few minutes later.  After ordering my Taylor Ham, it was ready within 2 minutes. Cost: For my sandwich and coffee, the cost was $5.80! That might be one of the cheapest diner meals I've ever had. Would I Come Back? I enjoyed the White Rose System and the old school atmosphere. It was the stereotypical old school New Jersey Diner. If you're ever in Roselle, I highly recommend it. read more

Corned beef hash (canned) was terrible. Asked for it crispy or well done - came mushy. Only option for eggs were fried or scrambled - no poached eggs. Opted for the fried eggs but those were cooked hard with no yoke whatsoever. Rye toast was good (prepared by waitress). Home fries were ok. The service was excellent and the attitude of the waitress was very positive and accommodating. I'll be back but it's all about what you menu items you select I'm guessing. read more

On Sunday March 27th I stopped by this establishment to get 6 beef empanadas. After I got to the house I realized they were 6 vegetables vegetable in pinadas on Monday March 28th I talked to the manager owner about this he comes out and shows me empty Box marked beef and I'm supposed to believe that's the Box he got them out of and so there's nothing you can do about it I would not buy food in this restaurant and take it home without checking it 1st that is the worst customer service I have ever had add a food establishment read more

I ordered from here based on the reviews, but clearly something has changed. This is a $7 sandwich. Even before covid 19 a bacon egg and cheese on a roll usually was under $5 and was full of eggs, soft edible bacon and cheese. Bacon was extremely overcooked and hard. This is such a simple sandwich, won't be ordering from here again, total waste of money. read more

As of recent, I keep having issues with this restaurant. I'm this close to reporting it to the BBB for its disgusting behavior. This restaurant keeps either not giving me what I ordered, under cooking my orders, or playing with the ETA of my delivery. It's not a joke and it's not funny. It's disgusting and you need to grow the hell up. read more

After my gym workout I felt the need for a few cheeseburgers and fries. White Rose System never disappoints! Besides the great taste of the burgers, it's the low price point that really gets me excited. When I tell people about the great value they never believe me which is fine because that means they won't go and see for themselves and I will still be able to walk right in and sit down and order. Next time I need to try a chicken sandwich or their pastrami. read more

I went into this place not expecting much. Just needed something cheap and open at three in the morning. From the outside it looks like an old fashion hole in the wall diner. When you go in it's nothing fancy but when you look at the menu you see everything is dirt cheap. The first thing you think is OK what's the quality? Surprisingly the quality is actually there for you even with the prices. I was able to get a steak and eggs with onions and home fries with a side of toast and coffee for $9.25 after taxes. The food was real good and I will definitely go back read more

Placed an order at 8:46pm...Online order time kept fluctuating but at some point stated expected to arrive within 4/5minutes -9 minutes...Received a text at 9:06 stating the Dash Driver was waiting to pick up the order and the new expected time will be between 9:26-9:31 pm....yet the online expected order time stated 8-9 minutes before delivery. Received email and text at 9:29 pm that the order has been cancelled because the store was now closed. So why accept my payment and my order in the first place? My husband and I saw on their tracker that the Dash driver's was on it's way to the restaurant while all this time my family and I thought they were on their way to deliver our food...We waiting 43 minutes just to be told they've cancelled my order and simply is just extremely unprofessional and inconsiderate because I could have used that time to order else where. read more

White Rose System of Roselle offers its take on the classic 'slider' hamburger -- a greasy griddle-steamed meat patty smashed down onto an ancient griddle that probably hasn't been cleaned since the Nixon presidency served with a liberal serving of sauteed onions on a potato roll -- and other typical diner fare twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week in a vintage landmark-worthy building that reeks of steam-griddled meat and onions. A friend and I recently stopped in to White Rose System of Roselle solely to sample the sliders. There are no tables, so we grabbed two stools at the well-worn but clean counter and scanned the menu on the wall despite knowing exactly what we were going to order the moment we decided to experiment with this north Jersey favorite. White Rose System of Roselle offers its 'sliders' in three sizes (small, large, and quarter pounder). The small slider is roughly one-and-a-half times the size of a White Castle slider and is a perfectly proportioned combination of greasy griddle-steamed meat, sauteed onions, and bread. White Rose System of Roselle doesn't serve their sliders in fancy white cardboard boxes and they're not as aesthetically pleasing with a geometric pattern of holes in the patty, but the freshly-prepared sliders are a terrific representation of the classic slider in a very casual and authentic Jersey diner-style ambiance. The $6 combo meal, comprised of two small cheeseburgers, an order of french fries, and a milkshake, is a tasty and very reasonably-priced introduction to a historic institution worth experiencing for yourself. read more

This place is the real deal. And, so is Frank. Where can you find a little chrome diner with their own mix of ground beef? Plus, homemade soups and a broad menu for any taste. It seems like every time we're there, Frank is mopping the floor again. That is very much appreciated. Try the meatloaf sandwich little little gravy on toasted rye. The wings are very tasty, crispy, and not too soicy. Breakfast was good, with a cup of rich coffee. I enjoyed the corn beef hash. We will continue to go back often. Lots to eat for a little bit of money. Oh, and did we mention cheese cake. Nice! read more

Small quick service diner style food, my lamb gyro was good, the eggs and corn beef hash platter was good. The waffles were plain and they have no options for adding fruits which is weird. I think it's important to support small businesses, especially Roselle doesn't have many. I like this place, not bad for a quick breakfast run! So since 5 months, I've visited here multiple times. I do want to add the chicken noodle soup is one of the best I've had at a diner. So during those winter cold days, stop by and enjoy a cup of soup. Don't ask for too much when it comes to service, it's traditionally serviced, same people sometimes they say hi and sometimes they don't. The breakfast if you stick to corn beef hash, homefries and any style eggs you'll be okay. read more

THE WORST BURGER IVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE!!!!!! No exaggeration! The burger was dry and who uses hard rolls for hamburger buns!!

Has a nostalgic feel. No-frills, great for late night casual bites. Fries are great and prompt service! I'd definitely be back.

Loveeeeeeeeeeeeeee this place for breakfasts everyone in my family absolutely love and prefer this place over Ihop

The Best Burgers in town and all around! Beats White Mana and White Manna! (Jersey City and Hackensack). Don't confuse this one with the other 2 White Rose's!

This is your late night after hour place to go if you're in the mood for something to eat. The disco fries were our favorite!!

This is my favorite drop-in breakfast stop. It's not very big, but you can call ahead and take it to go. I have had to eat in the car on occasion. I choose between 5-7am to grab a bite whilst calling ahead, they usually have my food waiting at a seat as I enter. Being a regular is a nice perk, although they treat everyone the same. The staff is great, they have a couple TV's on with the news going and if you place your order when you arrive; the foods out before you start to wonder. Oh yeah, almost forgot...they use blue Greek cups for small coffee's. If you are of fan of caffeine and look forward to good cup o' joe...they have it. I don't know if it's some sort of magic that these cups provide or they just make freshly ground coffee, but I've never had a bad cup here! read more

Friendly, fast service. Great food. Not much else to say but once you go you'll be hooked.

Old school diner vibe. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. The big draw for me are the Pork Roll and cheese on a a roll and the small burgers ($1.30). These burgers aren't the frozen chain burgers. These fresh balls of ground beef, smashed into a small pile of onion and cooked on a flat top. From the first bite you can tell that this ain't no dollar menu Mikey D, BK burger. This one tastes like home. read more
