Crystal Lake Diner
We go to the Crystal Lake Diner a lot, because it is very conveniently located. It is on Cuthbert Road in Westmont. I think we have probably been there at least a million times.

The Crystal Lake Diner is not a great diner, but it is not a bad diner either. When we are hungry and looking to go someplace not too far away, it is high on the list of possibilities. I think they served me the best cheese omelet I have ever had, but that was only out of the many I've ordered. I've been ordering them ever since trying to recapture it - maybe they have fired the omelet cook. The fries are nondescript, and none of the desserts are any good. They serve good pancakes and waffles, a decent salad, and a pretty good milkshake. The service is very friendly and prompt. They are open 24 hours, although we tend to eat there around lunch or dinner time, and it's not really a hangout spot for us.

In short, the Crystal Lake Diner is a perfectly good enough diner. You might want to visit to see if you can get the perfect cheese omelet. Those are pretty rare.

I just came across your site and read about the Phily diner and I thought i would let u know what i know about it. I used to work at Hollywood Dine in woodbury. it is actually owned by the same group of people who own Phily, and Adelphias. It is spelled Phily cause in Greek - who its owned by- Phily means friend or brother...something along those lines. also hence why Philadelphia is called the city of brotherly love. atleast that is the reasoning i was told by my old managers. but if u like Phily you should check out Hollywood on rt 45 to me that place puts Phily to shame.
