The Diner Finder is the Internet's best source of real diner information.Yes, this is the diner in the famous photo depicting JFK giving a campaign speech before a huge crowd in Garfield Square, Pottsville, Pennsylvania. If you go up to look at the diner, be sure to pay a visit to the Yeungling Brewery as well.
"We have been with you two years and seven months and we have given our best. For reasons beyond our control, we will close this business," Bill Kontogiannis, owner of the restaurant, said in a note taped to the front door of the 82-seat diner at 402 Market St. The last day of business was Jan. 30.
Valentina A. Lizak, who lives in Garfield Square, said Tuesday she was sorry to see it go.
"I didn't go there all the time. But if I was stuck and needed a place to go to eat, it was right there. And it was good food and the place was clean," Lizak said.
Kontogiannis could not be reached for comment this week.
