NEW YORK CITY — Prison food might be on the menu for these alleged thieves.

A burglar who had an appetite for cash put the hole in Jackson Hole Diner — smashing the glass door while his partner stood gaurd and hauling out the eatery's ATM last Monday, cops said.

The partners in crime hit the diner, near Astoria Boulevard and Hazen Street, about 4:30 a.m. July 8th, according to the NYPD.

Dramatic security footage released by police shows one of the men crawling through shattered lower portion of the burger joint's front door and then wriggling out with the ATM machine.

It's not clear how much cash was taken.

Afterward, he and the lookout fled in a light-colored Honda CRV, cops said.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS (8477).
