"Now that lower Bergen/eastern Passaic is saturated with Starbucks, this is the best one to find without a line/small line at all hours of operation."

"Open late. Always get the chips."

"As far as efficiency, non-despondence of the staff, and cleanliness goes, this is the best of NJ."

"Here and Thistle...it's hard to pick one over the other. The Scottish fare here is superior, and the ambiance is...well, you just have to experience it yourself."

"I wonder how many people in NJ have grandparents who frequented this place as kids - I know mine did. Like a museum of a bygone era, don't forget to have a 'Mavis' with your rippers."

"If you had to name a keystone of Northern NJ it's here or Rutt's Hut. The kind of place that makes you feel like it's 1957 again. Comfort food to the extreme."
