The outside of his tea mug was very dirty can't say about the inside as the tea was already in there. My husband had Eggs Benedict, if that is what you want to call it, the canadian bacon was boney and fatty, could not eat it, the sauce was bland, the english muffin that the whole thing rested on was cold as was the entire plate. My pancakes was dry, cold and over cooked, which by the way I was unable to eat, my susage was cold, but the plate which it was served on was warm. I believe that you should take a second look at this diner, let me know how you make out, as we will never return.

I was a frequent customer there, but after a few disappointments, I didn't return up until the last 2 months. (July and August) Upon my first visit in July, not only was I impressed, I could tell that the atmosphere was entirely different from what I had previously experienced. There were numerous new, and fresh faces there, and even some changes to the menu. I was made to feel welcome as soon as I walked in, and was greeted immediately as soon as I sat down. My husband and I ordered seafood platters, which not only were they a great price, they were also beautifully presented! Our meals included, soup, salad, our platter, and even dessert! We both had a full course meal for under $30.00. After this visit, I knew that I would be back again, and again! I honestly think that this restaurant is deserving of another visit and review by Chewru and their partner. I have not only visited several times after my initial disappointment, but I have visited for both breakfast and dinner. Never again being disappointed, but instead being impressed time after time! Being that I have visited this diner since it's opening, I will list my pros and cons currently. Pros: *Great food *Great prices on food *Large portions *Beautifully clean both inside and out *Excellent service (Amelia, Donna, Priscilla, Laura, Natalie, and Heather are the waitresses that I have recently had) *Friendly and grateful cashiers (I am not sure of their names) *Extremely handicap friendly *Comfortable dining room Cons: *The parking lot tends to be tight if parking in certain areas and driving a large vehicle *There is no changing station in the bathroom. (This made it difficult for my daughter to change her baby while dining) *Lack of a senior menu *At times the temperature can be too cold or hot in the dining room *The need for fat free/light dressings Overall, the Pros outweigh the Cons by far! I will continue to frequent this restaurant, as it has become not only one of my favorite, but the most beautiful diner in the South Jersey area! Keep up the great work Chewru, and please, if you have a chance, re-visit the diner, as I think that all the broken links since they have opened have been corrected.

We do have a bit of disparity right now in the community scores versus our review score, but there are only 3 votes (did you vote?). If the community vote total increases a bit and maintains a sizable premium to our score, then I certainly agree that the diner deserves another visit. The community voting system is in place as a check and balance to us missing the mark now and then - so definitely mark sure you vote on as many restaurants as you've been to! In regards to good coffee stuffz, I might sneak back under the radar to try some. =) Nancy, good comments.

Sorry to double post but looking around the site I read that you are quite the coffee lover! Sunday, ask for Antonia, I think she's the owner's daughter or neice or something. She makes the MOST delicious iced lattes, iced/hot mochas, and she made me an iced cappucinno once (I hadnt ever even heard of those before) Oh hey!

Reading your review it seems you got a bad waitress. Things have changed alot though since March. It's a new diner so I guess they just needed time to get into the groove of things. The food is consistently amazing and the waitresses (we usually go for breakfast or lunch on weekdays before work) are really sweet and helpful. The woman who seems to own the place is also a doll. I see her handing out cookies and little chef hats to every cute kid she sees. I don't know I really like it and just feel the need to suggest to you that you give it another try :) !!

Did I mention that the food was not only delicious, but the amount of food was more than enough (take home). The food presentation was as if you were eating in a more expensive restaurant and I thought the prices were very reasonable. I would recommend this Diner and will definitely be visiting it again soon. Try it, you won't be disappointed!

Best Diner ever!!!! I visited the Pine Hill Diner for the first time last night. Pine Hill really needed a place like this. The place was very attractive from the inside and out. Right when you walk in you can't help but notice the display with all of the delicious baked goods. I wanted to try them all!! Our server was very friendly and fast! And the menu was HUGE! So much to choose from. The Diner also has a bar and makes delicious GOURMET coffees. We ordered two dinners which were delicious. The pricing was very reasonable.. Considering that with the dinner you get a soup AND salad, and dessert, I would say it was a steal. Bathrooms were clean. Beautiful place. Great service and great food. Everyone was very friendly!! Will definitely return and recommend this place to our friends. Not only are they open 24 hours but they do take out orders! excellent!!! Best Diner ever!!!!
