Park Nine Diner (Freehold Township, NJ)
This week the owner of the website, NJ, isn’t boring and I went to try a new diner. A quick introduction but I found the website after someone mentioned a website that has a complete list of diners in NJ. While I utilize website the most for diners, it’s opened my eyes to how much we have going on in the state of New Jersey. Our state isn’t just home to 90 in the right lane drivers and people down to GTL. If you live in New Jersey or want to see what’s going on in our state I highly recommend checking her website out.
We decided to meet up at the Park Nine diner in Freehold, NJ. The Park Nine Diner is located in the heart of an intersection that made it complicated to get too. Prime location to see!
Park Nine Diner Atmosphere: A
The outside atmosphere was cute. It is an irregular-shaped building with plenty of room to park. The inside has been redone rather recently. I’m not exactly sure when but it’s modern. It was cute, clean, and I have no complaints. There were plenty of booths and tables. It wasn’t crowded at all.
Park Nine Diner Coffee: B
I ordered coffee with whipped cream. It came in a small mug. I never have an issue if it comes in a small mug but a small mug that I can’t get refills with, I do. The Park Nine Diner had reasonably good coffee, and my only complaint is that I would have liked more.
Park Nine Diner Food: C
The menu at the Park Nine Diner wasn’t as big as most diners. (I don’t know if I have written that about a diner?) There are a breakfast including omelets served with home fries and toast, bagels or English muffins, pancakes, few seafood options, a couple of salads and salad bar, sandwiches, and a few dinner options too.
I ordered the Greek salad with salmon. This wasn’t my favorite Greek salad. It almost felt like they took some greens, added some feta and a few olives and onions and called it a day. The Salmon was good though; I felt like I could have prepared a salad like this in my own house though. It wasn’t great food but it was edible.
Park Nine Diner Price: $$
My salad and coffee was 18.
Would I come back to the Park Nine Diner (Freehold Township)? Overall thoughts:
It’s not too far from my house, and it’s not bad. I wouldn’t seek it out, but it was pretty good, and the price wasn’t terrible. It’s an excellent central Jersey diner. If you are looking for the perfect diner experience, the Park Nine Diner (Freehold Township) is a good stop.

Questions for you:
Have you ever been to New Jersey?
What is something cool to do in your state?
My mom is visiting this weekend, and I’m pumped to go to a diner or two. Bring on the eggs and chocolate chip pancakes! 🙂
My mom is from New Jersey, but I’ve never really done anything there except drive through it. Oh wait I did go to a track meet once there in college. So I guess that counts haha.
Colorado = Rocky Mountains. Done.
Have I ever been to Jersey. I <3 Jersey. With or without its diners.
You should do the 70.3 in Princeton…
Ha! I have a work schedule conflict in 2015. Maybe another year.
No refills on coffee is evil.
When we hang out, salmon salads are banned as is coffee.
To be fair, I’ll also ban cookies and protein shakes. We can be creative.
LOL, yeah I guess you do only see get to see the restaurants I order a salmon salad at. I should blog about my other restaurant excursions in NJ sometime…
Have you gotten to hang out in Hoboken yet? I lived there for 6 months and had so much fun!
