Egg cream is fantastic, especially coffee or chocolate, which favors the proprietor does himself. Burger w/fried eggs, bacon & mushrooms can't be beat... as the atmosphere in this 100yr old joint...
Old school diner, amazing egg cream and homemade soda. Tuna melt and butter cheeseburger were tasty. Would come back again to try other things on the menu
Get the French toast with maple syrup – it's delicious. If you're with a friend split one serving so it doesn't go cold, you get a lot of food on your plate.
Continually operated by the same family (its last renovation was in 1948), it's a place to enjoy no-nonsense classics such as chopped egg or liverwurstsandwiches and the stellar ice creamfountain.
One the last spots in NYC to make coke with syrup (maybe the last). You want to try that although it might be very sweet for you. The French toast was surprisingly good.
Muy buen lugar, al viejo estilo americano, huevos y pancakes deliciosos/such a good place, old fashion American way, the scrambled eggs and the pancakes were delicious.

Travel 100 years back in time. Iconic home to NYC’s best egg cream, serving breakfast & lunch all day. Opened by Albanian immigrant Soterios Philis in 1925, still operated by his descendants.
Greatest lemonade you will ever taste. Same goes for the club sandwich. Wonderful, nostalgic vibe, and the owner is very friendly if you strike up a conversation.
I had the pancakes here for breakfast this morning, they were some of the best I have ever had! The waitress was really nice and helpful and the place was welcoming!
100 year old vibe that's authentic without trying. Great noodle soup, french toast, egg cream, and many classic diner staples. Old freshly made, old style.
Coffeemaltedmilkshake. Fresh squeezed lemonade with sugar syrup. Shrimp saladsandwich. Ginger soda with vanilla ice cream. For the truly brave? The jellyomelet.
Order a chocolate egg cream soda - the best in the city. This iconic institution has the oldest soda jerk in NYC. Oh, the chocolate maltshake is another must try.
Delicious, but beware. Tips in cash only. After not mentioning this, they claimed they're "not good at" the credit machine and won't void to add it. Sooo no tip for my waitress. Your loss friends.
