Even a remote compare to a Jersey diner is sacrament… I went to a Jersey diner a few years back… the menu was so large I swear I could eat every meal there for a year and still not eat every plate once in the menu… I love Jersey diners.. mass diners are a paltry comparrison… small cramped spaces that are always too small for the plates of food and coffee… limited menu. But usually you’ll get a good plate of food.. but really Just no comparison..now many years ago there used to be cafeterias that were very close to the quality of a Jersey diner… there was a famous one In Allston and I lived down the street and I basicly ate most meals there cause come on… coffee 2 eggs hash browns and toast 2 buckaroonoes… and this was in the 90’s… but alas most of the good ones have died… I forgot it’s name I think it was called kings deli
