What Lon Marvin doesn't like about Scotchwood Diner:
Had a very poor experience. I ordered 2 turkey dinners and a buffalo chicken wrap. The mashed potatoes were sour. So was the gravy. The chicken from the wrap was black. Black because it was old. I called to let the manager know, but it didn't seem to phase her. View all feedback. What Jen Norton likes about Scotchwood Diner:
Great diner food and staff is amazing! Lumberjack, Philly cheesesteak, and French dip sandwich are all fantastic options. The Pepsi soft drink is a must! It was one of the best we’ve had in a really long time. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20 View all feedback.

This local diner seems to have mixed reviews. While some customers mentioned poor experiences with cold and stale food, others praised the diner's classic atmosphere and delicious menu items. The service received both positive and negative feedback, with some guests having exceptional experiences with friendly wait staff while others felt neglected. Despite the mixed reviews, it seems that this diner maintains a loyal customer base who appreciate the old-school vibe and tasty menu offerings. If you're in the Scotch Plains, New Jersey area, it might be worth stopping by to decide for yourself.
