Where I live, diner food is entrees like country-fried steaks and pork chops, sides are black eyed peas, fried okra, etc. and biscuits or cornbread come with every plate. I like diner food but not burger joint diner food.

The American Diner is the quintessential symbol of freedom in mobility and space that we'er afforded here in God's Blessing of the United States, the quintessential symbol of freedom and liberty for the contemporary American era. It's perhaps one of the most glorious American institutional establishments that will forever be here regardless. This is what the world wants, because they dont have it, and we do.

It's actually pretty much how you're imagining it: you go into this little place where the decor has clearly not been moved or replaced for several decades and there's a CASH ONLY sign by the register, seat yourself, then a 50-year-old woman who calls you "hun" takes your order and you get two eggs, bacon, hash browns, toast, and a cup of coffee for four dollars

>>12156771
Pretty spot on. Sometimes they use "sugar" instead of hun and sometimes those old waitresses have their daughters working with them trying to hook you up. Pretty much all diners accept cards though over the $10 limit unless you live in the middle of nowhere. I fucking love diners.

>Doesn't Australia have Denny's?
No, not unless it's quite recent.
There are some tgif but not many and they're not exactly Denny's either.

There are a handful of US-style diners around, they're usually more US-style in appearance (boothes, jukebox etc) than cuisine but they'll do a burger etc.
More likely to do souvlakis and pizza slices as well rather than Cherry pie, pancakes and chicken-fried steak.
You might get eggs benedict but don't expect biscuits and sausage gravy.

Australia is a big place and its main cities are truly international so there'll be a few diners around that have legit US regional cuisines like 'southern' or whatever. Plenty of Australians have backpacked in Texas and loved the food and decided to open a diner back home based on it . So they're around but quite rare.

They can be hit or miss Anon. I use to live in the north, and I think diner's up there are the quintessential diner experience.
I also think it was a bad sign that they were completely empty. A good 24hr diner will still have folks come in after their night/skeleton shift or after a night drinking.
I would've suggested against wings also.

Im a regular at a local diner, it's comfy because the interiors skeleton is the same since the 1950s. It's not a gimmick 50s restaurant. Just been there since, and has gotten redecorated. It's super nice and for some reason, receives a lot more light than other establishments. Sitting in there in the morning with a cup of coffee and just soaking in the sunlight is pretty therapeutic. I feel like a turtle on a sun rock, and my mood is quickly lifted from dark places.

The girls know my name and immediately being me a cup of coffee and ask me if I want the usual. I nod like the driver from drive, and in a few minutes they bring out my usual: chicken fried steak, scrambled eggs, sliced tomatoes, and a bowl of grits with butter. I work it down at my pace while listening to the chatter of spanish and the traffic outside. It's my one solace.

with your description it's easy to understand why.
the whole appeal of American diners is that they're open long hours (usually 24-7) and the food is big portions at low prices. Nobody goes there for the quality of the food. You go there because you get a fuckload of comfort food cheap after you've been up half the night boozing.

Part of the problem is that our cost of living is so high that you just can’t run a cheap place.
I mean, I’d be happy for a place open 6am to midnight where I could get hash browns, eggs and a sausage patty with a bottomless coffee for $10.
