Guestbook
“ Typical Diner with large menu. Lunch, dinner and senior specials. Very friendly and attentive staff. I'm not local but the waitresses seem to know the regulars. It's nice to see a everyone happy to see one another. You never go to a diner for gourmet level food. However, so many options, plenty of comfort food choices. You can never go wrong with most diners , always huge portions for a great price. I would recommend. ”
“ It’s a lovely diner with some old school vibes. The staff are so friendly and inviting and the coffee is always topped off! I ordered the breakfast burrito which was such a pleasant and filling meal. All the portions are huge and you definitely get your moneys worth. ”
“ Just your average NY diner. Food was definitely above average, the omelettes are huge and a very good deal. They doused my toast in so much butter which i didn’t love but overall great quality. Can’t go wrong here at all. Service was great and everything was very clean. The benches were a bit beaten up with tape covering some holes and it’s definitely very outdated decorations but after all it is a diner. Overall a solid four stars. ”
“ Great diner experience with a menu as thick as a book. If you can't find something you like turn a page. Server was great. ”
“ I know I've been here before, thought I did a review, but I guess not, so here we are! The Village Diner meets my ideal criteria for a diner: small, family owned, authentic, unfussy, high quality, clean. Yep. This place has it all... My omelet was huge (just the way I like them) and loaded with fresh ingredients. Cooked perfectly too. The home fries were well done (as I like) and with the added onions, fantastic. Bacon was crispy. English Muffin was decent too. I forget how much I spent but it was reasonable. Service was fast and friendly. This place is like 3.5 hours from home but since I'm up this way frequently, it's on my must-visit breakfast spots. If you like classic American diner food, you won't be dissapointed! ”
