Sue L Posted August 16, 2006 #1 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Hey All, I am going on the Explorer next month and being the obsessed person that I am, we are planning to drive to the port very early. We live on Long Island and the traffic can become disastorous very quickly. I would rather arrive in the Bayonne area early and stop for breakfast/coffee somewhere. Does anyone know what if anything is around there? Any reccomendations for diners etc would be greatly appreciated. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going through the holland tunnel there is a diner(ok for breakfast) as you come out of the Tunnel in Jersey City---you are about 10 minutes from the terminal without traffic from there. If you are going thru Staten Island and going on the Bayonne Bridge I can't help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pounder207 Posted August 17, 2006 #3 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I think there was a donut shop right before you turned into the pier. Anything in Bayonne would be a bit to the west on Kenndy(?) Blvd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trish1c Posted August 17, 2006 #4 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Sue -- I can't be specific b/c every time in my life I've eaten in a dinner in Bayonne it was 2 am & well . . . . you can guess what I was doing before that :rolleyes: That said, it's pretty hard to get bad diner food in NJ. If the parking lot is crowded or has at least 1 truck in it, walk in. If the place is clean, bon appetite. You'll be fine & early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up in Wayne NJ and DH is from Paramus so we will probably come over the GW bridge as we know some great diners in that area as our first house was in Bergenfield. It is so true that there is no such thing as a bad diner in NJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
