Food was excellent staff was very nice it is always my number 1 place to go in toms river.
They have redone this building over and it's extremely nice inside very very clean. The food was excellent. The service couldn't have been any better. I don't know our servers name but she's the daughter-in-law of the owner. Very very sweet lady. We haven't been here in a while. it was good to get back. I would highly recommend coming here Today. Breakfast next will be lunch and then dinner will keep you posted. Come give it a try. come give it a try.
Always a great breakfast here at the bandwagon aka Mr Breakfast. Beautiful new restaurant great service and good food.
Another diner to add to the ranks of the NJ lineup! In all seriousness, we were excited when the old Mr. Breakfast converted into a shiny new storefront. We've tried the Band Wagon Diner a few times now, and it is a solid entry into the diner scene. I like that they have dinner and lunch specials, and most entrees come with coleslaw and a cup of soup. Personally, I've never tried the soup (I always deny it, although my meal comes with it) because the flavors never appeal to me. (They've consistently offered Manhattan Clam Chowder and Chicken Noodle / Rice, both of which I hate. Now if they offered lentil or split pea...) The food is always fresh and HOT - that small detail is so important. Each time we've dined here, the food (including the fries) has been so hot that we can't even eat it - a good thing, in my book! Our favorites are the breakfast staples (like pancakes), the wraps, and the panini (the one with the chicken and pesto is my favorite). In addition, the staff is always friendly. My one true critique is the hours in which it's open. The hours are like 7am to 9pm, which for a diner seems like a small window. However, I'm used to living in Hudson County where the diners are all open 24/7, so you can grab a bite to eat at 2am after you're kicked out of a bar at last call. I don't think Tom's River has that kind of scene!
Was really looking forward to a good diner in Toms River. This place is okay. I have been here twice, first time had the Cheeseburger Deluxe it was good, second time I had the Hot Open Turkey Sandwich which came with soup I had the split pea it was okay, salad very fresh, side veg of brussel sprouts disappointing no seasoning overcooked and frozen sourced not fresh and mashed potatoes not homemade, the gravy was some kind of yellow very thick topping not turkey gravy. The rest of the table ordered short stack of pancakes which tasted premade and heated up with a side of bacon (crisp and good) and a Turkey Sandwich which was good The server tried had a great personality but not trained for the job. I may be back..
I consider myself to be a pretty picky breakfast eater, as it's always my go-to at the diner aside from a burger. This diner is clean, staff is friendly and inviting. Chairs at our table were super comfy. I had two eggs over with corned beef hash & toast. An egg is not just an egg, it has to be cooked properly - no running white with runny yolk to dunk, lol. My eggs were soooo good and the corned beef hash was made just the way I like it - a little crunchy crust on top, YUMMO. My husband had the smothered chicken sandwich and loved it, our friend had an omelet that she said was delicious. Even the coffee and unsweetened iced tea was excellent. Our waitress, another waiter and the owner all checked in on us to make sure we were happy & didn't need anything. We will be back.
This is our go to any day we don't feel like cooking! The staff are lovable, and friendly. The food is always better than you expect. It's clean, it's inviting, it's the best!
