Step Inside the Glorious Googie-Designed Mel’s Diner in Santa Monica - Eater LA

"Mel’s Drive-In has reopened in Santa Monica at the historic termination point for Route 66. The venue, previously the Penguin Coffee Shop, has been restored to its former glory, maintaining its iconic 1959 layout and signage. The diner offers a menu featuring patty melts, milkshakes, burgers, fries, and more, and is open 24 hours a day." - Farley Elliott
