Crown Diner

It is very sad to report that after 35 years of service, this establishment has closed their doors for business today, December 9th, 2018 as of 8 p.m. It appears that many local shops and establishments in this area are suffering from the effects of gentrification in this area of the South Bronx. I have been here numerous times in my lifetime and have never had a complaint.

Their food was terrific, their drinks were reasonably priced and the staff were friendly and represented a symbol of culture in this area. This was a great place to go eat after a game at Yankee Stadium. Conveniently located near the Yankee Stadium 161st 4 train station, as well as an excellent community that helped build this business, this diner will surely be missed.

Thank you to the owners of Crown Diner and the staff. We wish you well and happy holidays.

The food is pretty great and the servers are friendly. My only concern are the people that come in late night asking for money. But the front woman handles it. Just wish they had fresh orange juice.

Cash only diner. Classic American style menu. Prices aren’t bad and service tends to be relatively quick. Busy during the morning rush hour time as it’s right near the 4, B and D subway station. Waffles here are delicious but be sure to eat them fresh, not ordered for delivery as waffles rarely travel well. Enjoy!

Been coming here for years. The service and food is great. The prices are reasonable and the portions are good too. The servers are friendly and attentive.

Probably my favorite local diner. Waitresses know you by face and if you're a regular they most likely know what you want to order. They don't hover over you like in other places, which I enjoy. Food isn't bad when the Arabic cook is there, but otherwise its not too bad. Ours an entertaining experience over all.
