Key City Diner - Phillipsburg

The food was quite good, but the prices were extremely high. I felt like I was taken advantage of financially. For two deluxe cheeseburgers, two sodas, and two slices of cake, the total came to $52. That’s just astonishing. I won’t be returning. On the positive side, the service was excellent, but the atmosphere felt cold and sterile with its new, modern design.

Where do I begin? The restaurant is absolutely stunning! I couldn't have imagined such a beautiful diner. The food was incredible. I ordered the broiled seafood combo, which came with soup, salad, and two sides. I was completely full—it was a generous portion. The desserts are a must-try! I ordered the blackout cake and strawberry cheesecake, and I'm still dreaming about them. The staff was very friendly. I highly recommend this place!

Jill and I visited the newly reopened and beautifully renovated Key City Diner for breakfast this morning. Greg, the owner, along with his mother, warmly welcomed all the guests. The service was excellent, the food was exceptional, and the renovations were truly impressive. We can’t wait to return numerous times and wish the family owners great success. We highly recommend the Key City Diner!

Woke up early and craving potatoes, so, we headed to the post-fire renovation re-opening of the diner for breakfast this Sunday after Independence Day. The inside decor is not the same ole diner from our late night stops back in 1980's. The cityscape mural on the one wall, all new floors and all updated furnishings throughout. And with the economy since Covid, the food costs are super expensive. All over, double priced food with smaller portions. A shout out to Carla, a ROCKSTAR server, whose reasonto make customers happy, was on pointe with a personality to match. Great gal. Ok, 3 scrambled eggs, home fries and dry toast, $8.99. Meh. Chicken fried steak, eggs, home fries, $13.99. I'm noticing restaurants are not only raising prices PLUS omitting a side. It's what's happening and I'm leaving hungry. We gave it a go and file it under: OAD (onceanddone).

Brand new and renovated inside! Everything inside appeared fresh and clean. My grandma loves this place and they have something for everyone! All of the food was served fresh and piping hot. They have great deals! Their mini dinner meals come with a soup AND a salad.All the staff was friendly and accommodating. Would stop by this place on a future visit to Jersey.
