Classic diners in the US are somewhat hard to come by these days, but for those among us who enjoy munching down on a good old fatty hamburger and washing it down with a tasty milkshake, there are thankfully still some decent ones out there.

The diner in America is almost important to the culture as sport is. Boasting diners unlike anywhere else in the world, the US knows how to serve up a decent meal with a classic and fun atmosphere.

In fact, some visitors even come to our great country just to check out this old time, favorite tradition.

So, we at Jurnii have made it easy for those on the hunt for the classic diner and have developed a comprehensive guide to the  Classic Diners of the US.

Take a sneak peak before checking it out.

Salem Diner

Operating for an impressive 60 years, the Salem Diner has become a relic over time and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Serving up a mean Spanish omelet, the Salem Diner also does a fine job of the American chop suey; a delicious concoction of stretched ground beef with noodles, tomato and spice.

Ben’s Chili Bowl

Famous for their chili dogs, chili half-smokes, and bowls or beef or veggie chili, Ben’s Chili Bowl is easily the best place in America to eat this particular cuisine. Open from 6am ‘til 2am, Ben will satisfy you chili cravings at almost any time of the day.

Mickey’s Diner

Open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, Mickey’s Diner is a National Historic Landmark and has been used in films such as The Mighty Ducks and Jingle All The Way.

Boasting “malts so thick you could eat them with a fork and hamburgers so juicy you can use a spoon”, a meal here is sure to leave you rolling out the door.

Rosie’s Diner

Rosie’s is an authentic and original icon of the American road and is a familiar image in well-know photographs, posters and on television.

Offering great home-cooked food and award-winning burgers, Rosie’s also serves the best breakfast around, with themed evenings ensuring a great night for all.

Mustache Bill’s Diner

Boasting a hometown, warm atmosphere, Mustache Bill’s Diner offers great food for ideal prices.

The star of the menu is without a doubt the Cyclops; a delicious one-eyed breakfast monster with two eggs in the middle of two delicious hearty pancakes.

Eagle Diner

Open 24/7 all year round, Eagle Diner is a family restaurant that boasts an impressive menu and even better prices.

Most dinners include a huge salad bar, with homemade soups and breads, adding to the homey feel of the establishment.
