Miss Bellows Falls Diner, Historic diner in Bellows Falls, United States.
Miss Bellows Falls Diner is a 1940s restaurant with a distinctive barrel roof and enamel wall panels. Inside, wooden booths pair with Formica tabletops, a marble counter lines the space, and counter seating offers views of the cooking area in the classic diner style.
The diner was built in 1941 by Worcester Lunch Car Company and relocated from Massachusetts to Vermont in 1944. The move happened when the original owners entered military service and sought new operators for the space.
The diner takes its name from the town and served as a gathering place where locals developed daily routines around its counter and booths. The interior reflects 1940s style, with wood booths and a long counter that encouraged people to linger and socialize.
The restaurant has entrances at both ends and seats around 30 guests across counter and booth seating. Visitors can easily find a spot whether the place is busy or quiet, since the different areas work for different preferences.
The restaurant received a major grant to restore its original marble counter, tile work, and vintage fixtures to their former condition. This careful restoration brought back the authentic post-war character that makes it special among similar establishments.
