Oct 29 2016 - Miss Mendon Diner

Gabby, Jill P, Mo and I were able to get together in October for our monthly diner breakfast.  It was a little later in the month then usual but we pulled it together.   Our October 2016 visit brought us to the Miss Mendon Diner on halloween weekend.   

The history
Miss Mendon actually started her life as Miss Newport and her car number was #823.  Even though her car number is 823 she was actually the 623 car built by Worcester Lunch Car Company since they began their numbering sequence at 200.   She was delivered on May 16, 1950 to her first owner.  The car layout remains the same as it did in 1950; it has been modernized a little bit, added a new dining area onto the side, and built a professional kitchen onto the back of the car and, re-chromed the seats and cleaned up and restored all of the finishes.

Our Experience

Miss Mendon diner is located in the Imperial Car Dealership parking lot in Mendon MA.   The original diner is well maintained and many amenities have been added to modernize the dining experience.  Sill had plenty nostalgic material however including the tabletop jute box selector.

Our meals were very good although nothing special.   Coffee was  good, hash was bland,  Gabs pancake was okay but not the one she ordered.   I guess we have given the food a B - okay but again nothing special.

As always a picture of the diner queens.
