Modern Diner Review

The line is often out the door on weekends for a seat in this 1941 Sterling Streamliner eatery. Breakfast—try the hash benedict, lobster cheese grits, or cranberry pecan pancakes—is served all day, meaning until this family-run diner closes at 2. The burgundy and tan railway car simulation was the first diner to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It's attached to a modern addition with retro counter seating.
