I walked here all the way from CALDWELL NEW JERSEY to eat here with my friends. The walk went through the woods and several different valleys. We were forced to walk on roads with no sidewalks for several miles The walk was over six miles long to get here. On google maps it said it was open until 1AM. But to our surprise and dismay, the diner was closed and we were left stranded and very hungry after we walked so far for NOTHING. We also got into many confrontations with drunk people driving by us and using my many forms of profanity against us. It was a major disappointment to walk over six miles and get NO FOOD. You should consider yourself LUCKY that this review is three stars.

I love this place. The service was excellent. The food was good. Only thing I didn’t like was the price. I get college food is supposed to be expensive but their cheapest meal was $7 but if you have the funds for it, this is a great place to eat

For many years, this was my go to place on Montclair State’s campus. It was always crowded and jumping, even on weekends. The exo structure is still there, but the atmosphere is just gone. I came at lunchtime on a recent Saturday to find the place completely devoid of customers AT NOON. It was never that way. Another disturbing thing I noticed was the non-existence of menus. That set off alarm bells. And the other huge down point for me was that day THEY WERE NOT TAKING CASH! I can understand perhaps there being a minimum amount that you can use a credit/debit card for, but no cash for what turned out to be a less than five dollars order? Are people that fiscally unintelligent or just plain lazy, that they can’t handle less than $20 on a purchase? That is one sad state. And no eatery should institute a no cash policy. Learn how to handle money, please.
At least the manager was understanding and accommodating, and I left with satisfaction for the quality of my take out, but regrettable dissatisfaction over what a sad shadow of its former self this place has become.

I ate here after Montclair’s open house, and this has been one of the best eating experiences I’ve had in a while. I was able to get meals and drinks for 2 as well as a appetizer for under $30. On top of that the portion sizes were really filling, something incredible for the price. The food was a bit oily, but really delicious, so I recommend anyone in the area to give this place a try!

They were out of almost everything, including their minds on a Saturday evening. Why would you be dumping the coffee canisters hours before closing?

Two of the staff were completely useless. Only one server was helpful- yeah idk why me alone needed 3 servers… Something was way off.
I thought MSU had a strong business management program. Maybe get an MBA student to intern there and turn things around.

I’ve eaten here several times because it was open late and on campus. Every time it’s been slow, VERY SLOW. The staff forgets that you exist before you even order. Even on a slow night, ordering one item, you will be here a minimum of an hour (fastest I’ve gotten out). I’ve even brought people here for the experience of poor management and service.

I will say all the staff I’ve engaged with have been very pleasant to speak with but that doesn’t make up for the experience.

Update: I wrote this before I was able to pay the bill and leave. I expected this to be my fastest experience there but it ended up being and hour and a half… so yeah.

The worst diner i have ever been to by far. Makes me extremely ashamed to give them even the slightest bit of hope when i get there. Their servers and staff are absolutely horrible and rude beside the select 2 people. The service itself is so slow and takes up to 2 hours to receive food that you want to take out. DEFINITELY needs improvement and while new management because whatever system they’re using now is BARELY working. Disgusted that this is apart of my school, DO BETTER !!

Don’t understand the bad reviews??? My son is a student at Montclair State and we always go there when we visit him. Friendly and courteous staff, delicious food served hot and fast, one of the best diners I’ve eaten in anywhere. Plus they treat the students very well, have weekly specials and provide a very nice environment for them to get away to and relax or get some work done.

Sat down, waited two hours for a grilled cheese and a milkshake. Costs an arm and a leg too. Would not recommend coming here, the service is horrid. Not to mention, they gave me and my friend the wrong shakes after waiting for two hours.

Overpriced for mediocre food. The service was bad as well and really rude. The host isn’t attentive to the entrance and I literally had to get his attention. The buttermilk pancakes were dry and had no type of flavor. The scrambled eggs were underseasoned and were broken up like small grains of rice. The only good things were the free water, coffee, bacon, sausage, and fries. Definitely wouldn’t come here again.
