The Butler’s Pantry Trackside

I’m not sure why there are so many good reviews. This place is a complete joke. It should have been a sign when there wasn’t one table filled when I walked in. The waitress is too busy texting and on her phone to take orders and refill drinks. The food is subpar and cheap, but I guess that’s what you can expect when you order a special. Definitely won’t be back here there are plenty of other great places than this shitty service and Mediocre food.

This place is great if you’re looking for a simple, home cooked meal. I’ve been here a couple times for lunch and am always impressed. The food is delicious, portion sizes are perfect, and the homemade pie is awesome! If you’re in the area definitely give this place a shot.

Very Cute. Nice Place to eat. The food is good. Nice Cute Atmosphere. My family likes eating here.

Five-​star shoestring fries and the rest is pretty darned good too! Enormous sandwiches, house-​made iced tea, chunky local pickles, even fresh peach pie all make this a great stop on the Unilocal food railroad :) Friendly and quick service too. Not just lunch, they serve dinner also.
The Jersey sloppy joe is turkey, bacon, swiss and coleslaw arranged around three slices of rye, it’s a meal for two, only $ 9. It was a disaster to eat but so worth the mess! The fish and chips had the amazing shoestring fries plus perfectly round fish nuggets, kinda looked like kid food but was tasty, $ 10 was fair. Also tried their chicken sandwiches, both grilled ($ 8) and breaded/​fried ($ 7) were served on kaiser rolls and came with those great fries, low price for great fare. The only way to improve these sandwiches is to bring beer LOL!
Nestled inside the old Far Hills train station, the Butler’s Pantry tucked its kitchen into the ticket master’s office, kept the old waiting room benches and added a bunch of tables in the middle. The door by the parking lot doesn’t open, go around to the tracks to enter. No tables outside unfortunately.
Vegetarian rating: 1 star, only option is grilled cheese.
We were too full for pie unfortunately, won’t miss it next time.

We’re actually sitting in the restaurant as I type. My husband had a grilled chicken sandwich which was dry. I had the roast beef & Swiss cheese sloppy joe sandwich which was great! My husband finished off the meal with warm blueberry pie and coffee. Service was quick & food was simple.

Had a grilled cheese with tomato there a few weeks back and it was hands down the BEST grilled cheese I’ve ever had.
Neat little place in the old train station that hasn’t changed since I went there in high school.

Well-​prepared, simple food. We’ve had breakfast, lunch and dinner here. We like the nightly specials because there is always a little flair to them. Chicken picatta and their Hungarian mushroom soup are great. Deserts — esp the chocolate chip cookie pie and the Hershey’s white icing chocolate cake are always great.
Atmosphere, not the greatest, but the folks that run the place and the waitress is always friendly.

I used to eat at Trackside all the time when I worked right down the street.
Most of their options are pretty simple, nothing too special, but everything I have had there is great. I often took food to go since I was in a rush to get back to work, but I always loved going in there and people watching when I did.
Far Hills is one of those small country towns where everyone seems to know everyone else. It seemed like whenever I went in there, someone was bumping into their friends or family or someone they knew. I often had the same experience, recognizing customers I dealt with down the block.
Such an awesome small country place, ride on the tracks.

Ok, its a restaurant in a train station. Sounds weird right? Sounds like some shitty sandwich place set up just to grab desperate hungry people waiting for trains with pre-​prepared turkey sandwhiches and crappy coffee right?
NOPE!!! This is one of those small town family owned restaurants that always wanted to find but never can. The menu is fairly simple but everything is very fresh, and very well prepared. Basics are all offered– burgers, good fresh turkey sandwiches, cheesesteaks. They also offer a full menu of ‘broasted’ foods which are fried-​like but healthier than frying. They have homemade soups, a very large changing dessert menu, and everything is made on premises daily. If you’re lucky enough to get there on raspberry pie day– you MUST try a slice. Heaven!!!
Dinner is more involved and they have specials each night of things that are fresh, old fashioned country meals like meatloaf or pasta night or other fantastic home cooked goodness.
Dont expect fast food, and dont expect it to be fast– everything is made to order. Its a really nice old style, country living kind of place.
And where else can you get raspberry pie?
