The Colonial Diner Reviews

The service was good.
The food is good. It depends on what you order.

Strawberry salad was tasty but they forgot the cheese which I am sure was half the cost.
Nice waitress but didn't keep.her mask in place.

Breakfast is decent for diners I didn't pay so I can tell you to cost

Under cooked food not one time but two times !!!
Pumpkin pancakes raw inside, ok to much for the cook to handle. So I went with something even my 11 year old grandson can cook two eggs over medium. I guess not still to much for the kitchen to handle the whites were snotty and even the yolk was still wet. Ok I ll just have coffee well guess what it was BURNT.
NEVER AGAIN !!! Save your money carry a PB and J

Recently remodeled looks great, good food and service!

Our family used to love Colonial, then it got really gross so we were happy to see it changed hands. We went for breakfast on Father's Day and waited outside forever and missed the manager calling our name. She finally seated us next to the bathrooms, I think because we didn't hear her whispering our name when she shouted other people's names. If you are a regular apparently she treats you well otherwise, not so much. She has been rude both times we've been there recently. Server was great and food wasn't bad but it's very pricey. Don't know if they jack up the prices for the holidays or if they are so high all the time. My sister asked for a second cup of tea and was brought a container of warm water and no bag so she had to reuse the old one. Parking is horrendous. I think I'll stick to Seven Stars diner.

A family favorite for yummy dinner options. The staff treat you like family. Regularly meet up with friends for breakfast, always good food and and enjoyable experience

Omg food so good...even the chicken soup banging!!!!

Satisfied both times for breakfast however, dinner was horrible.

Food and service are good and the prices are reasonable.

It was a clean goodlooking diner. The food was awesome and fair priced. The wait staff was all you could ask for.. I enjoyed this place Alot.

Waitress great mash potatoes good crab cake I will not order again

Always a good meal at a reasonable price. Not your typical diner

Good food and couldn't eat all of it. Was Huge portions. Prices were good also. Service ok

Love this diner, I always go her for the turkey clubs

Great food, great prices, no wait time to be seated!! Ask for Jackie...she gave great service to my daughter and I!!

Crowdy , But the food is so good, ours waiter was Awesome.one of my favorite places to eat

Fait at best. I had a cheesesteak here, serves me right when I am 10 minutes from Philly. If you are heading here for a late night cocktail and a quick bite keep looking. The bar closes at 10PM and the food is not worth the trip.

I had the best open face turkey with gravy. Much better there than it used to be

Great diner food. Best breakfast in the area. A real local spot. Same folks every morning sitting at the counter. The waitresses know me by name. The food is well prepared to order. I like my home fries well done and they arrive well done! You can tell the food is fresh and not sitting in a warmer all day. Nothing fancy just good food and service.

The food and service was exceptional. Cat our waitress was hospitable. I was in the area as I was getting my car repaired and looked for a local place to eat. I was satisfied with my choice and the next time I am in the area, I will definitely be back.

This is one of my favorite diners. The service is fast and always friendly. Their meals are good and reasonably priced. It is also open late for a quick late night stop. Have eaten here probably over 40 times and have always received good service. There is plenty of parking. They have lots on the side of the building, and also across the small street. I would choose this diner over any of the other local places for food. They do not rush you out like some places do when they are busy. If find yourself in the area, definitely stop in for a bite to eat. You will not regret it.

Ordered a Buffalo Chicken Salad with Mixed Greens because of the scare with Romaine Lettuce.. I was given a salad with nothing but Romaine Lettuce.. the waiter tried to be very accommodating and asked if I would like Iceberg Lettuce instead, I told him that was okay and started to pick apart my salad.. I have to say it was good but not as good as it used to be..

The staff is good and the waitress we had was wonderful. Filled drinks before she even saw they were empty.

Excellent menu choices. Very clean and very attentive wait staff.

I was refer to this diner when I was at doctor prieto's office from one of the staff members, for a procedure.

I just have to say, WOW! Breakfast was amazing.

The home fries was excellent, my onions we're cooked perfectly, the eggs... perfect! The hotcake (just got one) was delicious. The chocolate German cheesecake was superv! I highly recommended it.

The waitress was very knowledgeable, helpful, fast and friendly.

The diner look nice and clean.

No complaints at all!!!

I'm definitely going back again when I'm in the area :)

As good as any other diner I've been to. Gave it the standard jersey diner test. French onion soup was good but a touch on the salty side. Chicken parm was crunchy and very flavorful with a nice tomato.sauce. They have a very large vegan menu if that is your persuasion. Service was friendly and attentive. Prices were about what you would expect. I would definitely eat here again.

Large portions for reasonable prices. Huge menu variety! Good food :)

Nice place for breakfast very good service. Staff are polite.

Food was just ok. I give it 2 stars because the staff was great!

Very pleasant find! Been a few times and definitely met my expectations for a diner - enormous selection and very consistent. To be clear, it is not a 5 star upscale restaurant, but a 5 star diner. Clean, great service, plenty of seating, meals came at good pace, homemade dessert, inexpensive. Not my thing, but a surprising selection of vegan options available. We go when we don't feel like cooking for a homey feeling meal without breaking the bank.

Hadn t been for years then a friend sent a newspaper clipping about vegan places in NJ / we were surprised to see Colonial Diner - but we went tonight and I have to say the food is amazing! We had the poutine for apps, then vegan tacos and the cheesesteakless hoagie. They come with vegan soup and dessert too! Their bread basket is delicious (vegan) and the portions are huge! Our server Brittany (I hope I got that right - blonde hair) was very personable and did a great job. Service was amazing and the food was beyond my expectations. We definitely found our new favorite veg spot - can t wait to come back and try everything!

Great service...friendly staff and a great place to bring children.

5 out of 5 Patrick Hardin is by far the funniest and friendliest waiter there is.

food is awesome! nice and clean.could t ask for a cleaner diner.The waitresses are so nice.wouldn't go anywhere else

Our visit went well. Food was good, service excellent. Sorry I forgot his name but he was an awesome server.

Great place. Everyone is very friendly! Great food!!!

They definitely have some veg options which was nice, but very simple, very basic. They're spaghetti sauce was incredibly sweet, but the fry on the chicken was great (chicken. Parm).

I give this place 5 stars. Been there twice in back to back months and the food and service was great. Was recently there 3 weeks ago today. I always get the same thing when i eat there.

Always great food, great service. Would be great if they had espresso.

Took a SINGULAR bite of my girlfriends scrapple and they charged me $2 for "open food". They also made her keep her bottle of water at the counter, because it "could have been vodka". Ever since they remodeled the place, they wanna act like this high quality establishment, when in reality they're a mediocre diner from Woodbury and half the staff are on drugs.

Wonderful family like places, Good Food, inexpensive.

Amazing selection of vegan dishes and desserts- try the vegan poutine!

Very clean place and the waitress super friendly and attentive, and provided a great service ... We got breakfast really nice and big portions ..we came out super happy with the service and food ...thank you

Very impressed! Didnt expect the interior as beautiful as it was from the outside...not that I thought it would be a dive, just didnt expect how beautifully set up it was....our waitress was awesome and the food was excellent.
Was my 1st time there and there will be more times I'll visit.
Cheesesteak Omelet is what I had, my wife had chicken and waffle.

I ordered eggs bacon toast pitstiws, never hot my bacon. Very disappointed!

One of our favorites. A great menu with a great staff

It's a diner that doesn't smell like a diner. No heavy smells of grease or dirtiness. On a busy Saturday morning we were seated right away and attended right away. Eggs and omelet came out in what seemed like 5 minutes. Prices are reasonable and the portions are generous.

Best diner you could ever go to don't listen to what anybody says if they say it's bad I've been going here for four and a half years it's perfect

Tired of driving to Philly for legit vegan food? Colonial has the vegan in your group covered! Huge diner menu plus a vegan menu including vegan specials. I eat there weekly with my large family. They all love the diner specialties. Breakfast lunch and dinner. I get to eat my vegan food as well. Portions are large, service is great, and this diner is immaculate. My favorite, oh and they have a liquor license! Enjoy

I haven't been to Woodbury, in about 10 years; and I ate this Diner 10 years ago and it is still five stars :-)
