The Scene – NYU students flock to this semi-legendary diner, though what was once an archetypal greasy spoon has lost some of its rough charm with a renovation; on the other hand, the space does feel cleaner and more pleasant. Service tends to be more focused on clearing tables than pleasing customers. – – The Food – This traditional diner menu includes one of New York's biggest burgers--the inch-thick Cozy burger, which weighs in at nine ounces. While it will satisfy size queens, the meat quality is average and the rapid cooking time--plates arrive less than five…

Poor Value

by scottp2

I used to come here regularly several years ago & always had good experiences with the food & staff.

Recently, however, I returned with a friend at 1AM on a weeknight. Staff is still as friendly as ever.

We only ordered soup & french fries.

Soup: Canned (chicken noodle), tasteless & noodles far too soft (from being in the steamer all day?). $4 a CUP! ($6 Bowl).

Fries: Tiny plate arrived 30 seconds after ordering them, which worried me. They must have been under the warmer for a while after being fried twice: mildly warm, no crispness, soft ($4.50 & $1.50 more for gravy).

The place is overpriced for the quality. I realize later in the evening it is tempting for the cooks to get lazy, but that is no excuse. I would hope the food is freshly cooked when it is busier.

The name says it all

by Louis86

Used to hang out with my buddies in the area a long time ago and got used to eating the burgers here. Now I work all the way in midtown and still go down here for a burger and the soup. Yeah, everyone talks about the bugers but I love the soup also.

The fact it is open 24 also helps of course

  • Pros: burger, soup, price
  • Cons: none

Best Burgers. Period.

by DeeNigma , Citysearch Contributor

I don't care what anyone says, Cozy's burgers are up there with the best of them.

How they still serve such a huge burger, with all the 'fixins' for such a reasonable price is beyond me.

I've been going here for 20 years and for 20 years it's been awesome. I bet the 20 years before I started going were just as great.

Okay, let's say you don't like burgers (sigh), you can do breakfast (great egg selections), lunch items (chicken fingers, anyone?) or full dinners...mashed potatoes and meatloaf? Yes, they do that, too.

The staff is always up and since they are always open, that's a good thing.

  • Pros: Always delicious, always open. Friendly waitstaff.
  • Cons: Can be crowded, but hey, it's the Village.

Great lunch spot

by lh993

I worked near Cozy and had lunch there almost every day. It is definitely one of the better NY diners. The staff was always really amicable and friendly. As the name implies, the soups and burgers are very good. It is always very crowded during the lunch hours so they are trying to turn tables fast but it is definitely one of my favorite spots in the area for a quick and cheap bite to eat.

  • Pros: Food, price
  • Cons: Small & crowded
