I'd love to hear about your go-to spots for wings along the Shore. Obviously everyone has different taste and texture profile preferences for their wings, so I'm curious to see how opinions differ on even the most popular spots!
With a number of diners returning to 24 hour operation throughout the state, we're expanding our coverage of Jersey diners this year! This means rolling out region-specific Top 10 lists all leading towards our final statewide Top 20 list later this year. This North Jersey list curates 10 of our favorite diners from Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Morris, Passaic, Sussex, and Warren counties.
Where is your favorite North Jersey diner (past or present, doesn't have to be relevant to a Top 10 list, could just be a nostalgic or childhood favorite)? I used to love the Tom Sawyer Diner and the Northvale Diner growing up.
With many diners in the state returning to 24/7 or late-night operation, I'd love to know: What is your favorite diner in Central Jersey? At Best of NJ, we designate Central NJ as any town within Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex, Somerset, and Union Counties. I'm partial to the Somerville area, but the town doesn't have a dedicated diner (although Brunch by De Martino is a solid breakfast/brunch spot).
