Diners are GREAT ! Whether in jeans, for an anytime meal, or a tux (or evening gown) for a late-night AFTER-party coffee and pie - or breakfast! Sadly, they're slowly going away. They used to be EVERYWHERE! A very much a 'Jersey Thing' !!!

The old school diner's which I love are disappearing. Most were mom & pop operations and today's high rental prices are making them go away. Miss em'.

There is a very old diner, almost hidden, called Mickey's in St. Paul. I went there each time I traveled there.

ours was Charcoal Corners in Jersey. They tore it down last month. Sad to see it go.

My Manhattan neighborhood is full of fine restaurants, but I think we really need a diner.

it's so unfortunate that franchises have squeezed most of them out.

We have one in Wilkinsburg PA. For 70 years it was Scotty's Diner. About 5 years ago the name changed to Pepi's. Daddy told us it really was originally a RR car but there's too much chrome. Anytime Mother and Gran weren't home for dinner, Daddy took us there.
