After years of catering to travelers on Dutchess County's major highways, the "Historic" Village Diner now enjoys continued popularity as a community-oriented restaurant and the focal point of much local nostalgia."

The Historic Diner is not open 24/7, much to the chagrin of certain area residents (hint: not locals). It is, however, utterly packed on any occasion which brings parents to the school. And it's not a bad place to end an all-night revel, with coffee and delirium.
