ABOUT SOUTH STREET DINER:
South Street Diner (formerly the Blue Diner) was built in 1947 by the Worcester Dining Company to serve local factory workers. Over the years, the late-night restaurant has become a local landmark, a constant in Boston’s late-night scene and a final evening destination for local residents, students and visitors. When the clubs close, the late-night restaurant is the place to grab something to eat, hang out with friends, celebrity watch, and keep the party going. No visit to Boston is complete without a stop to the South Street Diner. Over the years, the late-night restaurant has been called "The PLACE for college students to start their Spring Break Tour" by Rolling Stone Magazine and has gained additional recognition after being featured on Good Morning America (GMA) as part of its United States of Breakfast competition in 2023. The late-night restaurant has also appeared in numerous feature films, including: Hiding Out with John Cryer; Second Sight with John Laroquette; House Guest with Steve Martin; 21; The Blue Diner for PBS, and featured in the DC Comic ‘BatGirl.’
