The Roadside Diner, Wall NJ

Why There Are So Many Diners at the Jersey Shore | Eater NY

"At Roadside Diner in Wall Township I found a diner car that’s been perched for decades, with checkered tile floors, a row of vinyl-covered stools, compact booths, vintage tins of saltines above shelves of glasses, artificial plants hanging from a beam, and a drawing of the Golden Gate Bridge over the counter; it even earned fame for a cameo in a Springsteen video, and owner-cook Demetris Gerakaris—who emigrated from Greece in the late 1970s and worked in diners before buying his own—says, “Everybody knows everybody here.”" - Melissa McCart
