The WORST TOURIST TRAP in New York! *AVOID* This Diner SHOCKINGLY BAD BREAKFAST. RIPPED OFF! Quite possibly the worst tasting breakfast I have ever reviewed plus you won't believe what the server said to me! If you are visiting New York City avoid this place located within the New Yorker Hotel.
Here's a Link to The Tick Tock Diner NY

Always brings a smile to my face getting a new notification of the McMaster!! Seventh Avenue, Penn Station, Madison Square Garden, it all brings back fond memories of my time in New York. Been blessed to have visited a lot of places but the big apple is still my favourite trip to this day. Getting to the food. The Tick Tock looked a great venue but sadly the food never lived up to the place. I do love the “diner style menu’s”, the silver monochrome vibe which is kind of iconic. Reminds me of the musical “Grease” or the movie “Diner”. I guess the Americans don’t really get the “English breakfast”. I liked the tin cup though. It looked like a mini tankard!! The Bacon like you said looked too fatty for me and the mushrooms looked devoid of form!! The eggs looked pretty decent. The toast and sausage looked thin and in the anaemic side!! Maybe try and find a better “English breakfast experience” on your American adventure. Good choice of music. I would give it a 4.5 out of 10. I would eat it if I was hungry and I did notice you ate most of it. Looking forward to the next one.🥊.x

New viewer and subscriber to the channel. Been mainly watching the New York videos, as been 3 times and going back in December '22. That breakfast didn't look great, and have heard of waitors questioning tips left (if not enough) but never experienced it myself (yet). On previous visits to NYC, we had breakfast at Applejack Diner, high up on Broadway. Didn't seem too touristy, and the food and prices were decent. Will be catching up on more vids, for ideas for when we go back. Keep up the good work.

When you went to my family's diner, Empire Diner, you had so many good things to say. We're proud of the selection and quality of our food at the Empire Diner. Our coffee is great and to boot, not served in a metal mug!!! If that server had half of a working brain cell he would've realized he was getting fussy over a dollar... a DOLLAR!!! The tip is calculated on the total without the tax. $19 bill; 15% is $3... 5% more would add one more dollar!!! That server was the one being stingy. Come back to the Empire, you are always welcome there (& have booze also!!!). Yeah, nothing looked appetizing on that plate. The sausages looked like the biggest let down, like something from an elementary school's cafeteria. I think prison inmates eat better. Cheers mate.

Hiya Lee! Poodles WIllies, Bullets and Nats pee! Gotta laugh at that 😂😂 The weather looks miles better even though you say it’s cold. What a horrible let down. I could tell as soon as you looked at the plate before eating it that it wasn’t a good sign. USA just can’t do English breakfasts period. Bacon looked that crispy stuff they put with waffles to me. The Poodles Willys ( sausages) remind me of many horrible chipolatas I’ve had in the past. Agree on the toast. Did they wave it under the grill really quickly? The baked beans and Mushrooms your face straight away could tell you didn’t like them. Eggs yes they were okay. Why put coffee in a metal mug. Is it to keep the liquid hot? The cheekiness of the staff to ask for extra tipping. At least you said why and even left a tip. I hope you managed to find somewhere better later to eat after that appalling eatery. Not gonna be able to look at a thin sausage without Poodles Willy out my head now Lee 😂👏🏻👍🏻

As breakfasts go I think that was one of the most pathetic I've ever seen. Where were the hash browns (which I'm sure was an American contribution to our breakfast)? Not to mention black pudding etc. Regarding the tip, there does appear to be a culture war developing when it comes to tips in the US. The attitude appears to be "if you can't afford to tip then you shouldn't eat out" directed at the consumer, as opposed to the "pay your waiting staff a decent wage" which should be directed at the business itself.

Sorry sir, but why go all the way to NYC and order a FULL ENGLISH????? Me and a friend ate here in 2018 and found the breakfast really good. Handy tip, the Americans will never do an English breakfast in NYC like a wetherspoons in UK, so why did you order something that's English in America only to be disappointed with the result? It's like an American coming to the UK and ordering American waffles and pancakes only to have it English style and be disappointed. Think your review on tiktok is rather unjustified. It's like an Indian ordering a curry in UK and getting it British tika masala style and saying WTF is this?? 🤷🏼‍♂️😂

WTF are you on pal? that's like going all the way to the UK and ordering a hamburger, or New York cheesecake, or pizza, going to an Italian and having spaghetti, or a Chinese restaurant and having chow mein. So you're saying you have to go to the country where the food originated from to make it authentically tasteful? And by the way, the dish (chicken) tika masala was invented by Ali Ahmed Aslam, he invented the dish at his restaurant Shish Mahal, which he opened in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1964 it is not a style numpty! You must be so full of crap that you think a Wetherspoons breakfast sets the bar for a full English, seriously? I've lived & worked on three continents and had some of the best full-English breakfasts outside of England. Lee has done hundreds of down-to-earth, honest food reviews, I'll stick with his views on this pitiful tourist trap's expensive sh*te food & service thank you.

They all have the same formulas, suppliers, and recipes and refuse to change. He went out of business. Having grown up around Greek owned diners, I can’t find any I like. I now avoid them like the plague. Love Greek food but not how they do American or Italian or any other food.

You got an English breakfast with American style breakfast sausages and bacon. Can't comment on how they taste but usual seasoning is different. To get an idea on what a typical breakfast sausage would taste try Jones or Jimmy Dean and bacon, Oscar Meyer cooked crisp. You'd get a better breakfast at a Mom and Pop style diner in New England. That breakfast was a dud and what a cheeky server complaining about the tip. You recovered I see with an enjoyable live vlog with #SilverFox.

Oh my word. If that was a full english. I'm an alien from the planet zog. A tip is optional. If I get bad service or crap food I dont tip. I tell them if you want a tip dont drive with a light bulb in your back pocket. Thank you for reviewing a definitely avoid the place. Great video Lee.

l must say l was worried when you walked in, there was so much stuff on that menu l thought it might be poor. Amazed he hassled you about the tip too! l always was lead to believe that the service in New York was second to none! But a good video to watch.

That coffee looked like a mug of builders tea. A Fool English with non-bent sausages and no bubble? Darren John would be onto Trade Descriptions. Imagine a Glaswegian going in there 'Whit? Ma breakfast was pure and utter shite...and you want 20% on tap ay it? Bolt ya rocket! Mac every city in the world has these dives, try and source out the non tourist places, places where the locals go.

If you want to go to a great timer for eggs, sausage,home fries & toast, at a reasonable price , go to the Bendix 1Diner in Hasbrouck Heights in New Jersey (just a few miles outside of New York City). Not the fanciest diner, but a real diner with good food at reasonable prices. Since I moved to Florida I miss going to the Bendix Diner for breakfast.

To question the tip?! That's bad. Almost as bad as the food by the looks of it. Thank you for reviewing this. I said it would be a rating of 3 and my wife said 2. I told her about the pub with the free hot dog. If we ever go there, we'll definitely have to go there :)

I'm happy we don't have a tipping culture in the UK. To be expected to pay extra on top of every meal you have as some kind of gesture is bad enough but then to be questioned because the tip isn't the desired size is cheek beyond the pale. I'm well aware,many of these waiting staff are on a low wage but wouldn't paying employees a decent wage and offsetting the cost with higher menu prices be more sensible? It's a completely f-ed up and unnecessary system.

Thats the problem with the tip culture these day's its expected even if the delivery is poor.

I really like city holidays and always wanted to go to New York, that was until I did go didn’t like it at all and wouldn’t go back, I think it’s the most overrated most expensive city there is, London beats it on every level, anyone that hasn’t been to a big world city go to London the best place on gods earth.
