Old Route 72 Diner Is Gone At the Route 72 Plaza!



As the president of a local laryngectomee group I would meet some of the Laryngectomees at the old diner for breakfast and then it was “closed.”

We had to meet in Berlin and sometimes New Britain. I was told of the new happenings at the old site and waited patiently for the upcoming breakfast meeting.

Amazingly, upon my arrival today I immediately saw the completed renovated diner and couldn't’t believe this has happened during our bad economic times we are currently experiencing.

The New Hometown Grille with its Italian style cuisine and friendly service. The proud new owner, Mr. Michael Vince, is from Prospect Ct. He also acknowledges that this is his 25th. year in the restaurant business.

He completely turned the old diner into a brand new one for much out of pocket expenses during these very hard financial times.

Offering Breakfast and lunches with thoroughly cooked meats, poultry, sea food, shell fish, and eggs all at moderate prices.

Their hours are for weekdays 5:30 A.M. to 3P.M. and on weekends for Saturday and Sunday 6 A.M. to 3 P.M.

Just between Cromwell and Berlin at 869 Mill Street, East Berlin, Ct.
Making it just the ideal friendly spot to stop off on your way by.

    I have been here a number of times under the previous owners, and am looking forward to trying the new place. Thanks for the "heads up."

    Does this place have Catanzaro's seal of approval?

    Wait until these Democrats see what the Obamamania has planned for the taxes small businesses like these will have to pay. They must be punished for having more than other people have, so we will take their wealth and spread it around to people who need it and deserve it more than they do. That is the way of the new Democratic Party, so I hope these people plan to work long hours to pay all their taxes to support people who don't work.

    Thanks for the warning. I prefer to spend my money at businesses owned by Republicans. I don't usually spend my hard earned money where liberals benefit from it.

    Went there for breakfast after church and the food was great! You will not find a better breakfast/lunch spot in town. You will not be disappointed.
