On our way back from NYC, we stopped by this lovely diner. The food was fresh and delicious. The portions were enormous! The service was quick. Our waitress was extremely nice and very accommodating. We had a great meal and an excellent time there.

Ordered a greek chicken salad and it came out underseasoned, watery, and gummy. Still better than another guest’s burger, which he asked for medium-well but ended up overcooked to death. To top it off, staff was unfriendly and inattentive.
2/10 – Never again

As our family was leaving the Catskills we wanted to stop for breakfast.
Liberty diner was the perfect stop that was enroute to NYC.
The diner is very festive, upbeat, and lively. Loved that they are one of the very few places in the Catskills opened late hours.
Large variety of choices on the menu, the food is very good, coffee was great. Service was excellent.
Loved that they serve cocktails if your in the mood for a glass of wine after a long road trip, or other spirits.
When visiting the area this will definitely be a place I visit for a sit down, bite to eat.

After two disappointing encounters with Diners on the trip, I have to say we were third time, lucky. Although this is a diner, the food here is a notch above your typical diner food. The space itself is huge with a lot of different seating areas. as you enter you are welcome by shelf full of cakes and pastries, and it was very hard for me to resist ordering a couple of them, but I had no space after the breakfast. We ordered a bunch of breakfast item, and I got the eggs. Benedict over crabcakes while my friends got the French toast and the omelettes. Everything tasted great. Although the crabcake was not very crabby, and I am sure they used some form of imitation crab, but given the price, it was still pretty good. The omelettes were very well made with a lot of fillings and the house potatoes to go with, that were very good as well. I loved the French toast with the Nutella, and it was gone in minutes. The only let down was the coffee and it was a very bad quality of coffee. I wish they invested in better coffee beans. Overall, a really good breakfast place.

Very good experience here day before Thanksgiving—stopped on way down to visit family on Long Island. Food was very good. I think the mashed potatoes were instant, but the environment made up for it. The waitress was very friendly—she had a child that was our son’s age, so she was very patient with us which means a lot. When we were walking on the door, the maître d’ was very nice and handed our son a rubber ducky from behind the counter—they have a rubber ducky machine in the foyer, which our 4 year old son wanted to play, we kept insisting that it’s not worth it to play—because it won’t guarantee you the rubber duck—didn’t want to see my 4 year old sad in melt down mode because he didn’t get a ducky. So, whether they knew it or not, they taught my son a lesson “good things come to those who wait”/”have patience”.
Anyway, the swiss-mushroom burger I had was great!—My husband had the gyro, which came with zuchini fries which was a fun twist on the gyro which he said was very good. Our son had the pasta with meatball and marinara, but didn’t eat because he was worked up over the ducky machine in the foyer, but as I mentioned was worth the lesson learned.
Experiences like this should be made intentional in establishments like this to teach children learned lessons… maybe I’ll write a book about all of the possible encorporations we can adopt into restaurants and other stores and stuff—which can be disclosed to parents so they can be made aware that this lesson is available to them for their child, if they wish to guide their child on identifying the moral of the story.
I’m a mom with ADHD who has a vendetta for modern children’s books—they don’t offer the depth in lessons offered in the books my mother and grandmother read to me. I’m trying to brainstorm ways to fill the void so I can raise my child to be perceptive, cognizant and aware of the world around them. The digital age has made parenting very difficult, as far as your guidance being impeded by technology/screens—even if you limit screentime, the exposure they’ve ever had has already wired their brain for what level of excitement is worth their attention(dopamine). So you need to outcompete that level of excitement to get the child’s attention to teach them things. What a better way than real life experience in the world around them to teach them things—can’t get anymore in-your-face than that.

Our server was very friendly and attentive. There are periods of special pricing for lunch and dinner. I came during the early bird dinner special, which has a special section on the menu, with option to add a beverage and dessert for $6. Many entrées include a soup or salad. All staff were courteous. There is a 4% discount offered if paying in cash. There is also the option to order online. Each table had sanitizer. Seating options were mostly freestanding tables, with some counter seating and booths. A lazy Susan displayed a delightful array of cakes and pies.

A motorway emergency brought my family to this diner at a late hour, when all other non-fast-food eateries were closed. It was still bustling, signalling its popularity. The whole place gave off a warm air of home dining experience. The portions were unmistakably generous diner sizes! My vegetarian panini was delicious; I only ate half of it and the other half became next morning’s breakfast. My son wolfed down his chicken sandwich. The only blemish was in husband’s shrimp and avocado salad: the shrimps were undercooked. I took a few home and microwaved them to perfection the next day :-). Their fries were surprisingly nice – crispy on the outside while fluffy on the inside. The bathroom was pristine. We pass through Liberty on occasion, and sometimes make a special trip to go antique shopping. Very happy to have discovered this culinary option!

Clean, bright, and a huge menu. Food was delayed however, the waitress was apologetic and explained there was a new chef training. Food was delicious. I am vegetarian and had no difficulty finding a meal. My partner loved his breakfast at 8 O’clock in the evening. Would definitely recommend.

I found this place whenever I was traveling on my truck route. I got the special which was the prime rib panini, and a pumpkin latte. The portions were overly generous & it tasted delicious. In the pic, I had already ate half lol.
I would suggest visiting this place whenever you’re in the area.
