What this is
DinerAtlas is a free directory of diners in the United States, organised by state and city. Every listing has an address; most have a phone number, and where a business publishes its hours or services we show those too. Listings come from open data and from the businesses themselves, who can correct their card at any time — about the directory. Nothing on the lists is paid placement.
Pick a state above, or use the “near me” button to jump to the diners closest to you. City pages show the full list with a map; state pages collect smaller towns that have a single diner.

Common questions
What makes a diner different from a regular restaurant?
A diner is a casual, American-style restaurant known for a long menu of breakfast, sandwiches, burgers and comfort food, usually with counter seating and booths. Many serve breakfast all day, and some stay open around the clock.
Are diners really open 24 hours?
Some are, but many keep shorter hours, and holiday schedules change. Check the diner's posted hours and call ahead to confirm, especially late at night.
What is a Greek-American diner?
A diner, often family-run, with a classic American menu plus Greek dishes such as gyros, spanakopita or Greek salad. The menu is usually long, so check the diner's current menu.
What is on a typical diner menu?
Eggs any style, pancakes, omelets, burgers, sandwiches, soups, meatloaf and other comfort food, with milkshakes and pie for dessert. Daily specials are often posted on a board or a menu insert.
Do diners take reservations?
Most are walk-in, with seating at the counter or in booths, and larger groups may want to call ahead. Weekend breakfast and brunch can mean a wait.
Are there vegetarian or vegan options at diners?
Some diners offer vegetarian plates, egg-free options or substitutions, but menus vary widely. Check the diner's current menu and confirm ingredients with the staff.
