Ойын-сауық
White Manna and White Mana are the names of two fast food diners in the U.S. state of New Jersey, named after manna, the Biblical food. They were originally opened by Louis Bridges, who purchased the original diner that was introduced in the 1939 New York World's Fair in Flushing Meadows Park, Queens. Both buildings were manufactured by Paramount Diners of Oakland, New Jersey in the late-1930s.Bridges owned five diners, all named "White Manna"....The Hackensack White Manna Diner is a fast food restaurant located at 358 River Street. The diner has been at the site since 1946, and it is on the banks of the Hackensack River... When originally introduced, it was called the "diner of the future" and an "Introduction to Fast Food. According to the present owner,, the reason for the difference in spelling was a result of an error when the sign was serviced. It is famous for its hamburgers and sells approximately 5,000 a week

I worked for Ronnie back in 2009. I had a psychotic episode when I almost killed myself and Ronnie had found out about it. He actually came to the hospital where I was at during visiting hours and brought me candy and everything and said whenever I get out if I wanted to come back to work but if not, he understood. I didn’t come back because I ended up going back home to another state to be with family. But Ronnie was an amazing boss and owner, he is exceptionally kind and generous and over 10 years later, I still remember that gesture because no one came to visit me EXCEPT him.

Sounds like an A-plus guy. When my mother died in May of 2018, our pizza folks came to her wake. Fast-forward to December of that year when the owners' mother died, and we returned the favor.
Ronnie is still the owner. His son is one of my best friends. Nicest guy ever and great place!

Absolutely fantastic place. I got clowned by Ronnie because I was clearly high, ordered 10 and he said I should make it 15. That shit had me dying. Great burgers too and I cleared them in about 30 minutes 🤣🤣🤣
My sister & I were there for the 1st time. The Staff was so cordial, cheeseburgers delicious & it was indeed a fun experience. Posted pics on FB. We were so "tourist-y"...lol and only live 10 minutes away!
I grew up on white manna best sliders ever on the planet
One of the most legendary burgers ever in the whole USA
They are much more filling than White Castle. First time I'd suggest ordering half as many as you normally do at White Castle.
NY/NJ guys love telling you how long they’ve been eating somewhere and how fresh food is

Best sliders anywhere. Totally destroy White Castle. Not even close.
hosted a few international students in high school and was friends with a bunch of international students in college-brought em here and rutts hut especially during thanksgiving in college. whenever they visit we go here and rutts hut. better than any chain fast food joint.
I just went into the restaurant today with his family. Best food ever you have to try it.
Forever love their burgers. Ronnie, is one helluva class act.
This place is friggin awesome. I had five last time, and I plan to have more
The guy at the counter is trying to say he eats his burger dainty, but he can't quite get the words out because he just pile shoved about 3 burgers in his mouth and hasn't chewed them up yet, lol

The dream bussines,you offered a great food and people come a lot to eat it...!
Love the Manna, well worth the drive down from Albany.
my mom took me there for the first time the other day, she went there all the time in the mid-late 70's as a kid, and han she brought me there, i had 2 doubles w/ cheese, a fries, a white milkshake, and a diet coke! all in like 5 minutes, one of the best things about this place besides the food quality, is the time it takes to get to you, you say 2 doubles, the grab the meat throw it on, and a minute later, its in your stomach!

There are two White Manna's in NJ, this one and the one in Jersey City. They are not owned by the same people. I have had both and this Hackensack location is my favorite.
Those burgers are awesome!
I live in Rockland County NY and I'll gladly drive 30 minutes to go get a burger here... that's how good they are.
Hackensack baby! I lived right down the street from that place
Grew up eating there and Hanks Frank's on Route 46. Great local food.
They are not trying to be like white castle, white castle uses frozen beef that is steamed on a grill, with dehydrated onions and 1 piclke slice, this guy uses fresh beef and onions that are grilled and not steamed

Was there yesterday. Ran in for a pickup.
Went there for the first time last April and the place is crazy! Line wasn’t long at that point but it was crowded inside. Ordering’s kinda strange: you order your burgers, drink and fries from 3 diff people but after your 1st time, you get it down.
Now I want to go today.
where i live, in indiana, we have a place called Powers Hamburgers. Made just the same way, but it opened in the 1930s. 6 dbl chz burgers and life is good!

If ya ever find yourself in or near Salida Kansas. Take the time to visit the Cozy Inn downtown. Dang good sliders and nails.
Went there all the time in the early 70's, best burgers in the area, when I worked in S. Hackensack ... then the company moved to New England .. so it was move or look for a job. I moved.
I live on the Alabama/Florida line but that’s on my bucket list of places to try..
I've been to White Mannas several times and their other signature is the Cheesesteak on kaiser role which is a must try
Just went there great spot
Good burgers . I used to get 4 doubles with cheese and onions
Looks so Delish :')
i visited my relatives in jersey for a day and realized that this place was 5 min away. went there at 10pm with my cousin and it was closed. i almost cried...so we went to white castle and got the crave case T.T
I live 20 minutes away and I’m dying to try these burgers
Each time I'm in Hackensack I have to stop in and get some burgers. I like how they are made right in front of you which makes it a great experience knowing your getting fresh burgers. I usually get 3 and that is good enough for me. But great little place and if you're ever in NJ, try and head over to Hackensack to give these burgers a try.
probably not a good idea to watch this, when you haven't eaten all day.

now i have to go!
It is like a mini oklahoma onion burger
Unknowingly went here when I was in college and had little to no money praying that this place would be cheap. Yes it was lol got 4 burgers for < $10
Now that is a rock & roll burger because hashtag courtesy of WWE Superstar Seth Rollins in case he sees burgers like this, “Burn It Down!"
Looks like the authentic version of White Castle burgers.

Love this, I want to go! I wonder if they would opt their wrappers for "GREEN" wrappers. Shoot if they are selling over a 1k a day it really could make a difference.
