Arthur’s Paradise Diner
The epitome of ‘old school, ’ this place is open only for breakfast and lunch and specializes in something called the Boot Mill sandwich (egg, bacon, cheese and home fries on a grilled roll). Expect long waits, testy service and an atmosphere as authentic as it comes. In other words, paradise.

Boulevard Diner
Reason enough to live in Worcester, this old dining car looks much like it did in 1936. Experience red Formica tables, dark wooden booths, old iceboxes and a big painting of a yellow-jacketed dude who has long stared from the doorway. Food-wise, enjoy eggs, plus a menu of Italian specialties including meatballs, veal and eggplant parmesan. Wistful memories of fabulous grapenut custards haunt college students’ dreams decades after leaving Worcester.

South Street Diner
A divey diner that does what a diner is supposed to do – that is, serve bacon and eggs and burgers and fries, at any time of the day or night. Plonk yourself into a vinyl-upholstered booth and let the sass‑talking waitstaff satisfy your midnight munchies.
Considering the location, this place is bound to attract some sketchy characters. But again, that’s what a diner is supposed to do.

George’s Green Island Diner
Inside this spare diner, sit at the counter to behold the world’s eighth wonder: a grill in constant use that never dirties. Just how George Army’s spatula cooks up all that meat, egg and potato without a stain remains a mystery, but you’ll be too distracted by kielbasa and liver and onions to notice. It’s in a tough-looking Irish neighborhood. Coffee costs 55¢!

S&S Deli
This Jewish deli is an Inman Sq institution, great for homemade soups, hearty sandwiches and breakfast served all day. Enjoy old black-and-white photos of the neighborhood while you wait for a table, especially if you come for weekend brunch. Skeptics complain about the lackadaisical service and nondescript decor, but they keep coming back for more.

Mike’s City Diner
Start the day with a big breakfast of eggs, bacon, toast and other old-fashioned goodness, topped with a bottomless cup of coffee. If you need to refuel at lunchtime, go for classics such as meatloaf and mashed potatoes or fried chicken and biscuits. The service is friendly and fast. Your server will probably call you 'hon.' Cash only.

Corner Lunch
Here, you’ll find a sweet prefab built by DeRaffelle in the 1950s. The exterior contains plenty of silvery metal panels and a big neon sign. Inside, there are fries, club sandwiches, meatloaf and eggs. While the food is bland, the seating is not – it’s a patchwork of duct tape and glittery gold Naugahyde.

Red’s Sandwich Shop
- Salem, USA
- Restaurants › Diner
This Salem institution has been serving eggs and sandwiches to faithful customers for over 50 years. The food is hearty and basic, but the real attraction is Red’s old-school decor, complete with counter service and friendly faces. It’s housed in the old London Coffee House building (around since 1698).

All-American Diner
You are here in America's Hometown, what better place to eat than the All-American Diner? It's a classic red-white-and-blue place, with a breakfast menu that reads like a novel. From corn-beef hash to eggs Benedict and amazing omelets, all of the breakfast items get rave reviews (especially the home fries). If you prefer lunch, try the Thanksgiving sandwich.
