I was raised in this area and when. I saw the diner I wanted to go in. I instantly began to reminisce when I would get off the 1 train late at night and go eat here. It has me family run and operated business. There have been some updates, but there is still a diner feel.

1/10/26. Just had an early dinner w friends. Eggplant parm, spinach pie, beef gyro deluxe w/ fries and Greek salad, plus coffee. Everything was fresh, well prepared, hot and delicious! The male server w/dark hair was very kind and competent.
Thank you!

I came to Goldmine to have breakfast with a friend. Upon leaving, I realized that I left my hat at the restaurant. I immediately returned and spoke with the waitress who served us. She pretended to search for my missing hat. She informed me that another group may have taken the hat. Which is impossible because I was only gone for 20 minutes and there is no way that another guest could have eaten their meal so fast. She even informed me to call at 6am and speak to the manager. I felt that I was being lied to and I was absolutely right. I found my hat hidden behind the ketchup at the top shelf. Attempting to steal my hat at the end of her shift. What a low, degrading and classless thing to do! I will never eat at this establishment again!!

i have lived in the area my entire life and have visited gold mine quite a few times. unfortunately the first few times i didn’t learn my lesson and continued ordering the bacon egg and cheese wondering why it was so dry. turns out that the lady who works there doesn’t know how to say “ketchup mayo” after B.E.C. she insists that they put it in the bag and then i receive nothing in the bag. she has gotten my order wrong countless times and today did the same thing. i said ketchup mayo. she said we put it separately i said okay and ended up not putting mayo on my sandwich. small things but very annoying to deal with so many times back to back. i will continue eating here because the food is very good but the service with her will be avoided. i’m not sure what her name is and i honestly don’t want to put her on the spot but they need to figure that out ASAP

UPDATE (2nd Visit: ⭐️) Note: This is my second & final experience with Gold Mine cafe. The first time I went, they had just received a late night delivery of fresh cinnamon rolls. Delish! I think I rated them 4 stars based solely on that cinnamon roll & black coffee to go. But this second time around, I “dined in” and ordered a little more. Oh how things change. “Excuse me, Sir, I’m very busy” is never a good reply to a customer whose order is incorrect. I ordered banana raisin French toast w/ scrambled eggs, bacon & black coffee. I received “banana raisin French toast” (French toast topped with a sliced banana and some shriveled up raisins), scrambled eggs (some of the loose raisins were underneath so I guess it was raisin scrambled eggs), but there was no bacon and no coffee. To be fair, they had one lady working and it simply wasn’t working; she was literally handling 10 orders at once. However, that’s on the management and will result in a bad review because they created an environment that is not conducive to good customer service. Here I am trying to give business to this establishment (because of a good first encounter there) and I got pushed too far. Instead of them just giving me some loose bacon, I asked for a bacon, egg & cheese with extra bacon. That’s when server told be she was “very busy.” So I got up, canceled the additional order, went to register and demanded bill. Paid $11.60 for 2 scrambled eggs and 4 French toast triangles (not even full slices). Left the sliced banana & shriveled raisins on the table. I won’t be returning to Goldmine Cafe ever again—their gold may seem good the first time, but it turns green the second time around. ////////////// ORIGINAL REVIEW (1st Visit: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️): This is a throwback open 24/7 diner on the corner where you get a good deal for your money’s worth. I can only speak for what I ordered: a JUMBO coffee roll (delish!) & small black coffee (solid cup o joe!) for less than $4 (and .50 cents of that was a debit card surcharge). While waiting for an Uber around 12:45 AM, I saw the bakery delivery truck pull up and I knew the night time had just become the right time for an early morning pastry.
While waiting, I saw someone order a fresh squeezed lemonade which looked pretty good; they have a fancy contraption that squeezes citrus fruits to make juice fresher than anything in a Tropicana container.
If in the area again, even during daylight hours, I’d definitely revisit. My gut tells me if trying something on the menu for the first time, stick to the classic breakfast choices: eggs, bacon, French toast, pancakes, sausage, etc..

The food is decent however the service was not so good. The waitress was quite rude so we asked for another person to serve us other than that everything was fine.

The place has good food and service. It is also placed in a good area. At first the waitress didn’t understand my brother (who speaks clear english) when he asked her how her day was. They also forgot to provide us silverware. Everything was forgiven when the food came, which wasn’t a long wait. My brother got pancakes with strawberries, my sister got over-easy eggs with hashbrowns, toast and bacon, and I got Belgium waffle with bacon. The pancakes and waffles had the same taste, but different textures. The bacon was crispy and the strawberries looked fresh. The hashbrowns were cut crispy potatoes which are better than the thin cut potatoes. I will come back here when I visit New York again.
