The Summit Diner is not some new place with a few retro decorations here and there. It's been around a long time, 1929 to be exact, and it's been at its current location since 1939.

For the record, at that time, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the President of the United States. The Summit Diner is known as the oldest diner in the state.

The Summit Diner is a must for true New Jersey foodies. It's a great place and a wonderful piece of Garden State history.
