Chrome stools, bottomless coffee, and a menu filled with page upon page of classic comfort foods: Diners are quintessentially American. Diners nationwide have been recognized for their historic pasts, award-winning menu items, and high volume of positive reviews, making them must-stop destinations on any cross-country road trip. From decades-old landmarks like Tops Diner in New Jersey to no-frills lunch counters that have quietly become cultural icons in their respective towns, these are the most iconic diners in every state.

The best breakfast diners offer classic American breakfast dishes, a homey ambiance, and notable local acclaim, making them essential stops for breakfast lovers.
