diner style

Chrome and vinyl

Diner style describes the aesthetic, atmosphere, or food associated with American diners—casual roadside restaurants with counter seating, booths, and simple comfort food.

The look features chrome fixtures, neon signs, vinyl upholstery, and checkered floors.

Diner-style cooking means hearty, unpretentious fare: burgers, fries, milkshakes, eggs any way you like them.

The kitchen was decorated diner style with red vinyl stools and a jukebox in the corner.
