Hungry at 2 a.m.? These four NJ restaurants are open 24 hours

This was not an easy task.

Searching for restaurants that offer food all day, every day. Seems that the 24-hour business is not that common in New Jersey. The good news is that if you are traveling late or way too early, or driving a truck, there are some options for a snack or a full meal.

My guess is that New Jersey is more of a "9 to 5" state with commuters getting to where they're going at what most would consider a normal time.

For me, getting up at 3:30 a.m. every day I've become aware and informed about those keeping crazy hours. With my schedule, there's very little time to think about a meal at that time as I need to work out and read up on everything happening so I'm prepared for the show.

But there have been times that I took a late-night flight and found myself on the road after midnight.

Most NJ towns are ghost towns after 11 p.m. I did find a few places that are open 24 hours. I can't vouch for the food because I haven't been to any of them. But I'm hoping you can help me by trying them out and reporting back on the free New Jersey 101.5 app!
