A landmark, historically significant, and successfully operating diner is being offered for sale for the first time. Sale includes the property, business, trade fixtures, and intellectual property. Originally built as a 1941 diner car, it is believed to be the last prewar diner brought to the anthracite region that still stands today. The building has been remodeled and expanded over the decades, with numerous recent upgrades. The diner has been family-owned and owner-operated for over 83 years. Located in the growing Tamaqua Area at the intersection of two major state highways, it benefits from approx. 20,000 cars per day, per PennDOT, plus additional traffic from a nearby farmers market on Wednesdays. Recent improvements include a new roof (2023), new gutters and downspouts, and other updates detailed in the associated documents. The property offers ample parking, with the lot recently resurfaced and seal-coated. Two Carrier rooftop heating units were replaced in 2015 and 2018. The site also includes two fire suppression systems and three fire extinguishers. Liquor license available to purchase separately and not included in listing asking price.
