Those days are long gone. It s sad to see how over the years this destination has gone from a favorite to scrap metal.
Years ago, the restaurant was originally known as the Silver Dollar Diner in Little Ferry, New Jersey. it was built in 1946 by the Paramount Dining Car Company. and first opened in the 1940s.
The diner was used as the setting for many TV commercials over the years. Companies like Sanka coffee, Pepsi, Ethan Allen Furniture, and Sony used the New Jersey diner location for their advertisements. The diner was made most famous by the Bounty paper towel commercials that were filmed inside the diner during the 1970s. In the ads, clumsy patrons would knock over beverages, and Rosie the Waitress (played by Nancy Walker), would clean up the mess using Bounty paper towels the quicker picker-upper .
