Devoted to deco? Nuts for neon?  Or maybe nothing puts you in the mood for buttery toast and hot coffee like a pink sunrise glinting on cool stainless steel. Regardless, the Hunter Dinerant in Auburn will satisfy your cravings for caffeine and kitsch in one fell swoop. Flanking Route 5 like a Jazz-Age railcar that decided to pull up its wheels, this modest eatery was actually built in 1951 by famous diner maker Jerry O’Mahony Inc. One of the top three diner manufacturers in their day, Jerry O’Mahony and his brother Dan have left their gleaming prefab legacy all along the American roadside. You can learn more about O’Mahony diners here. And for a brief and interesting history of the American diner, visit the American Diner Museum webpage.
