That's Diner 254! Omg! Yes I've been there! It's a 1960's Retro eatery that's was opened around 2010. Great clasic burgers, milk shakes, breakfast pancakes, you name it, they had it on the menu. Damn, i miss this place!
I used to live and work nearby. I had a few meals there and it was a cute place! I'm glad it wasn't torn down, but sad to see it empty. The 2008 recession really hit the area hard and so many places went out of business shortly after.
when you pressed the ring button i heard a door bell sound it actually worked i had to rewatch the video and thats amazing this diner is amazing imagine people doing car shows at this diner before it gets replaced
Did a bit of research, this was built as a 5 & Diner restaurant. This was the only 5 & Diner restaurant in Ohio. This was later Sammy's Diner, and Diner 254, and (I guess) was then used as the used car dealership. It honestly isn't overly visible from the main road (SR 254). Might have done better if it had a bigger sign, or something nearer to the road.
It does remind me of a dennys classic that we have here in medina. I have been meaning to get out there and check it out. That is cool. Thanks for sharing brother
I got to eat there a few times when it was Sammy’s and Diner 254. It is such a cute place. The Quaker Steak next door is closing at the end of April 2024, maybe a spot for a future video? My 8 year old son loves your videos and got so excited to see you in a spot he recognized!
Awesome video! I can tell you that this was a former 5 & diner since we used to have a few of those in az, the inside & outside pretty much has the same look, the signs & the neons as well!
The remaining lights around the building would still be on if it wasn’t for the broken tube, the one light is a separate connection not on the broken grid
Yeah, getting parts for your car and breakfast at the same time, I call that a balanced day! The Abbott and Costello Who's On First Routine is too funny!
Hey Wallie, I wondered if I could share a link to your video on my video? I just came across yours and I remembered I had some old video of the diner from 2006. We used to have car show/cruises there and I figured people would like to see what it looks like now. Of course, my old videos are really archaic. My newest car show videos are much better. TIA, Tim
There's a diner like that downtown where I live that still functions as an actual diner, and like a few other places, I've been meaning to go eat there again for quite awhile now. This looks like it was a cool place as both the car lot and the diner.
Honestly, I live a 5 minute drive from there in South Lorain, and I go past there all the time as that's how I access Route 2 / I-90, and I see everything else, the dealerships, the UH medical building, Quaker Steak, etc... but I never really have seen that building, or, it looks familiar, so I've seen it, but I never looked that closely. I don't know what was in there, and I didn't know it was 'converted' to a dealership. Looks like the just changed the sign and dragged in a desk and left the original restaurant in place (smart move).
I got Ford Focus from the Ford dealership. Had nothing but problems with the transmission clutch slipping 3 times under 50k miles and they fixed it twice under warranty. 3rd time they basically said nothing was wrong even though the car shutters on acceleration
Hey I drove a jeep. I have drove ford, chevy, plymouth, volkswagon, mitsubishi,. Wallie , take care of the Bee friend. I have known mechanics that are worse at fixing their own vehicles.
I love the beautiful aesthetics of the diner/car dealership! I really love to eat at diners! I especially like hot turkey sandwiches and hot meatloaf sandwiches both with mash potatoes and gravy. Wallie, here in Weirton, WV on Three Springs Drive, there has been construction of a Primanti Brothers restaurant. I just found out yesterday that Primanti Brothers is having a grand opening on Thursday November 2nd, and the the grand opening is the exact same grand opening that they had at the Primanti Brothers near where you live. Are you going to be able to make it to this grand opening of Primanti Brothers? It's on Thursday November 2nd. I'm going to be there. I work steady night turn shift at my job and I can just walk to Primanti Brothers when I get done with work. It's on my way home from work, as I walk to and from work every night and morning. I hope to see you there. I just found out about the grand opening yesterday. The grand opening starts at 5am. I just realized that when I first posted this comment, that I forgot to mention the time the grand opening starts.
Hello walley I haven't seen your videos for a while now I always watch but life has been not so good are you still with your woman ??? Hope all is good with your life my friend I'm from Verona Pennsylvania go Steelers
Nissan is fun to drive. Drove a 2005 Altima to Charlotte from PGH. Transmissions are garbage though. Nothing good happens when you partner with Renault
I love your videos and i will always be a fan or the bee friend and mean no disrespect of any kind but i have a 2011 kia rio 5 lx also known as midnight she 259249 on her odometer and still running strong on original motor and trns
