A good ol truck stop. Very busy.
Its Jersey!! Considering that, this place is probably World Famous. I saw this as the setting on a Prilosec TC commercial.Great Coffee and Baklava!10-13-2021 they were closed...
Is shut down guys, it has a sign for rent, unfortunately, November the 1st,2021
Don’t waist your time coming to this truck stop, there’s only about 20 truck parking spots, and when you call ahead to ask if there are available spots they lie told me yes, and when I came there about an hour later at 3:30pm, there weren’t any spots and we talked to a truck driver that told us he was waiting for 2hrs for someone to drive away so he can park. Looking at the paid stickers the trucks parked there were paid up for multiple days. It would be nice and productive and cost effective if they count how many spots they have and how many they sold and for how long they payed till and when calling ahead they approx can say when spots should open. with our ELD’s and New York traffic and $$ toll bridges $$ this truck stop becomes a waist of precious time where you can plan to park and sleep at some other service plaza like Vince Lombardi before that too gets taken up. This New Jersey truck stop is the closest to “Journal square transportation station”. Vince Lombardi is closest to Hoboken transportation station.
I think that is a good place to stop and eat something also you can re-fuel go to the bathroom. There are like 5 tesla charger so if you need it you stop in there. Finally there are 2 machines were you can spend some money trayin to get a beats or a pair of sneakers and other things. Was a good experience.
Nice and clean
The food is always fresh and yummy, staff members hands over awesome customer service. I like how neat it is and mood. Worth a try.
The food is consistently fresh and flavorful, employees hands over good customer service. I loved how neat it is and atmosphere. Keep up the good work.
Its a JERSEY THING, you wouldnt understand.... Good fuel, reasonable prices, nice little secret hole for truckers with good security, adequate parking for about 60-70 rigs and clean showers with a decent little storeand a full-service Greek-ownedEatery right next to the truck stop. Do give this place a look truckers, it works!👍👀
Food was amazing & Service was A+++! They turned the AC on for me because they noticed we were hot. Very friendly and kind staff. Highly Recommend this place!
The Food is on the MONEY GOT TO TRY IT BRO CHICKEN WITH RICE AND MIX Vegetable its hot if you like spicy Dam it MAN
Stopped in for coffee was clean and nice. Rest rooms were clean.
We have been eating lunch there 3 times a week for 10+ years. Also great catering services too.
A favorite evening place of mine. service treated us so kindly.
Nice an easy place in an out but good food
First time Ive been here, its pay to park but 24 dollars for 24 hrs is not bad at all. First 2 hrs is free, 12 bucks for 12 hrs.The staff were very friendly, the prices in the store were very reasonable not over priced parking lot is clean no trash littered. Fuel price is excellent. Very neat and clean inside. I recommend if youre in the area And need a place to go this is it, they have showers, laundry, repair services, c-store, and a diner that separate. I recommended it to my trucking friends and will be back when Im in the area 👍
Five stars for the diner. Food was great, service was great, nice old fashioned dinner from 1947. Nice change from the regular truck stop food. Large portions, fresh veggies and desserts made from scratch. This was the silver lining to our horrible day in horrid traffic and nasty rain. It definitely made our day. Shout out to our lovely waitress Melissa, to Mike, and our fantastic cook. It was all great. Thanks
Great place. First time in Jersey. Parking is not free but reasonable. Showers are not free but we did get a free copilot shower. Security all night, very friendly guy. Very friendly clerks. The diner was just awesome! Great food and amazing service!
Warning you have to pay for parking. Besides that I went to the little food store here and it was closed for two Hours because of changing shift. Prosthetic the cost for Parking is every 12 hrs the fee is 12 dollars. 24 hrs, 24 dollars and so no. Good Luck.
This is a number I family stop. The food is tasteful, with good potions. Management and staff always make me welcome. Back at home in the best Diner in Jersey. Family always welcome me and Im welcoming you. Stop in and see Sam and his family.
Beautiful Old Style place, decent fuel prices, has : showers, laundry machines, with Good Mechanic shop next door. Great people who work there too. Great place. Need more pumps, tho.
The best bourbon chicken skillet in the road.Thank you
They could improve on the cleanliness especially outside. The help spends their spare time chatting when they should be cleaning.
Its like an oasis in terms of parking in the area for truckers. They have showers, Transflo service, fuel, and a diner that serves great food. The staff is friendly and professional. I look forward to coming here whenever I have a load picking up and or delivering in this area.
So its a good spot for a somewhat quick bite to eat. I went with my boyfriend and sat down and nobody came to our table to even greet us for about 10 minutes. The place wasnt too busy but it seemed that the people sitting at the counter were first priority.Once we did order, the food came out fast and tasted really good. I did want a refill on my coffee but we couldnt get the servers attention until we were done with our food. Also it was freezing inside and we both had to keep our coats on. Overall food was good but if I did come back I would sit at the counter.
Amazing little place! dont let the location fool you. great service. great food.
For being a small Diner in an industrial section of Jersey City New Jersey, I was quite impressed. Prices are reasonable, food portions are excellent and the staff or extra courteous. I sat down in front of the grill and it wasnt even the waitress that took my order it was the chef. While hes back there slicing and dicing frying eggs you look back over shoulder said what can I get you? I told him I order and in less than 5 minutes it was being flung out in front of me. Kudos guys good job! Will definitely be stopping in there every chance I get.
It’s 2nd time for me here. It is a small place, but the food is fresh, homemade style, very tasty, large portions, very nice people and friendly.I gladly recommend this place.
Always liked coming here. The girls inside are so sweet and friendly. The restrooms and showers are always clean as well as the inside of the store. They offer pizza and hotdogs among thousands of other items. They have every type of coffee you can imagine.
Its there but closed. It does look like they are remodeling so they may be open again.
FANTASTIC customer service even though they were busy ( I went on weekday around breakfast time). Get the HungryMan Breakfast platter. Trust me.
Really was a dump. Ownership recently partnered with Mobil and they are in the process of renovation. The coffees not bad, but no driver lounge. Diner next door does have some good groceries and fair prices. The shop on the property, has different ownership, but the guys know their stuff and not expensive. I had an inside tire repaired for less than $30 and its still rolling. You get a view of Freedom Tower, without the congested traffic. Only one place in North Jersey with free parking, and they only have like 10 spots. For the money, this aint too bad. Havent tried the shower yet. Just getting up the nerve to take a dump here.
Wonderful staff. A members only facility but during my travels my son had to use the bathroom and could not wait. The lady buzzed is in a courtesy. He barely made it. Still good people out there.
Ate there for 4 years while running local. As of last month,September, its closed for remodeling.
Not a lot of places in nj for trucks to take a 10,so far Ive never missed here, diner is good for the eats
The place is closed. I park my rigg at this location to go into NYC
Terrible placeFood in cooler is old and tastes nasty no parking cause all the local boys go home...plus u have to pay for parking and they time u
Not a bad place to park good view of the city. Reasonably priced for the location. Very busy shop next door
Decent people. Clean showers. Great diner next door.
Small, and very homey. Great food. Staff is super friendly! Cant wait to visit again
Raul is great in taking care of people..
Good food good staff
Service is great! Visit a.least once a wk highly recommend it for breakfast
The Truck Stop Diner is amazing!!! Delicious food, more than a fair share helpings, nice Ole Diner atmosphere. Service was outstanding too, didnt get the young guys name, but he was very polite, friendly, and more than willing to help out. First time here, and will definitely come back again when in the area.
Delicious great homemade food nice service decent price really good
Very difficult to get into the restaurant if you are elderly or disabled. Food was good. Service was questionable. We had to keep asking for things, and our breakfasts (3 of us) didnt all come out at the same time, even though we all got omlettes. Id return because its convenient, priced well, has an extensive menu, and the food was good.
Dont let this small place fool you. Great food excellent staff and decent prices. A must visit if your in the area.
What a dump, all the positive comments have to be from staff and owners. If you want to buy a shower, they won’t let you buy one. You have to buy fuel. Go to the pilot, it’s only 1 1/2 down the road
Eats, a nice store, and more all at arms reach. Friendly Staff, trusted service to please. Parking available FCFS.
Nice truck stop with clean bathrooms. Parking always full but it’s secure. Hard to get a space. Restaurant right across has delicious food tho and opens at 6:00am. Be ready to pay for parking b
50%50 clean outsideBut fuel orice better than other gas stationSemi truck fuel def and truck repair shop and parking available 24 free
Not sure if they are racist but I placed a order over the phone and went in to pick it up. The waitress was friendly and helpful. I asked for some ice in my jug and she said sure no problem she took my jug and proceeded to go get it then the lady at the register called her back and said something in there language then she handed me my jug and said the ice machine is broken. Really now ! I assessed the diner and seen everyone else had ice in there cups. The waitress knows whats going on in the kitchen miss cashier who I think is the problem. Canceled my order the older gentlemen asked why and I told him as I was leaving. Lady with the glasses on register curved my entire appetite. Have a good day.
Great little diner, good food and service. Easy to get to even in a truck.
Easy truck parking, had to pay. Showers are clean and water pressure is strong. Food is amazing at the diner. Places, parking lot and fuel island is spotless. Do not pass this truck stop up if your in the tri-state area. It is worth the trip
Hey needs work, but looks like they working on it . services was great . The two ladys are great and young one is single and gorgeous with beautiful smile. Theirs this young guy too and he is awesome and knows his customer service and treat people right. if your not getting the service is probably because you a rude indivisible and you get what you put out. I like it that I pay for parking because keeps them dirty cheap trucker that dont know how to keep it clean and less break in so it worth paying . and there always parking unlike them free ones . I like the location too and I can go to new York for 3 or 8 hrs to get a break from trucking all week
The staff at this place are rude, pushy, and not helpful at all.......especially the security that takes his job to a level that could be considered borderline abusive with no understanding of trucks capabilities....... 5 stars to the Mechanic shop theyre awesome
Better to drive a little more. I was not impressed.
Went to utilize the showers there and the place was not clean at all. Would never go back there. And to top it all off they charged $22 for the shower.Will never use again
Dirt truck parking lot. Reasonable parking fees $12/12hr.Ive never stayed here since the renovation inside but I hear its great.The Truck Stop Diner is the best food around and the main reason that I stop here at all.
A good place to park when you running out of time good food and security
Great truck stop to park your rig, nap, stretch legs and get some great food to get yourself ready for a long drive. Just what I needed to get back on the road and ready for another 20 hours driving cross country. I will be back when I am in the area again.
Its nice and clean and is a great place to fuel up and grab a quick bite and coffee
Jersey has VERY limited resources for trucks. Overall not a bad little place. Parking is not free but $12 for 12 hours.
This place has really turned around since the new owners took over. Clean and bright. Friendliest people working. Parking lot clean and regulated so you wont get stuck behind other guys just making a spot.
It is a typical truck stop diner with some interesting characters on both sides of the counter ... and they also serve beer
The parking is hard to find The little restaurant is totally amazing well worth the stop the menu is large and has food for all kinds of appetites and good size portions service was very good HOME STYLE FOOD FRESH AND FULL OF FLAVOR...
Nice and clean store and bathrooms. You have to be buzzed into the bathroom so no worries about bums or druggies. Parking is 12 bucks for 12 hours. Dirt lot. Parking lot is lit and well patrolled by security, plus you have the best view of the big apple. They do have a scale and a shop here too. Plenty of parking as of 1500 local.
Not a whole lot for selection, but its the closest you can get to Jersey city for truckstops. They have laundry, showers, subway and a Spanish restaurant. Decent trucker supplies, gadgets, just not a while lot for drinks.
Great stopYou pay $12 to park for 12 hours and it’s on dirt parking lot, but all in all convenient and they have security going around as well.The building itself is clean and tidy if you want to use the toilet you need to be buzzed through so you know that the facility it secure and they like to see who comes and goes.
Pay parking for big trucks,but I have a flat tire being repaired. Great service!!
I am there between 1am-3am so it is kind of slow. Service is good between the gas cashier and the accessories cashier. Bathrooms are clean, and washer and dryers are clean too
They charge $12 for 12 hours for parking....strictly enforced. No food in the place....
Real food! NOT a franchise. Good service and reasonably priced. A place I go out of my way to stop by when in the area.
I love this place. The food tastes fresh. Employees are kind. Just come here and enjoy. This place gives you big portions and fulls you up quick.
Its a quiet place to filled with diesel engines and you can get a fast bite for yourself
Its for truckers, dont go in for a family dinner. But if youve been on the road forever Driver. Then this food stop is a must. Next to truck stop and the service and food are as authentic New Jersey as it gets. Go!
Good ol fashioned truck stop diner. Love it.
A gem in the middle of a desert as far as truck stops go. We will definitely keep this in mind when in Joisey! The diner next door is a bonus and has good food. Handy location too though a bit tricky to get past the lights. Only other places seem to be service plazas on the tool roads so youll pay one way or another...
Theres this nice Diner in the truck stop that make good breakfast, lunch and dinner. The coffee is very good
Nice and clean.....truck parking is none existen....must be really lucky to find truck parking on this place.
Paid to park $24 for 24 hours are $12 for 12 hours. They do protroll the parking. Two young girls behind fuel desk very very very rude. Even if you are polite. I guess thats New Jersey for you. I would only stay here if you really need to stop.
Awesome food at reasonable prices
Nice place where its sooo busy. Good place to be
Great place for food. Breakfast is big and delicious. Everthing is good. If truckers eat here you know its good, fast, and well priced.
Very Good Truck Stop ( New Showers too ) VERY SMALL PARKING next to A GREAT Greek Dinner, Truck Insurance and Truck registration accounting, Western Union and a Very Good Mercanic Shop
The food is awsome the staff very friendly. And the portions are huge I can never finish all of my food. I eat here every time Im Jersey
Monique is sooo AWESOME!
Truck stop means truck stop. Not great highway access. Definitely not your Iowa rt 80 truck stop.
