    This Diner gets all the stars! Not only was the food great, but the vibe was perfect and the…read morewaitress was great! When we first arrived the hostess asked us if we would like to dine in one of the cars. Of course we said yes. We had to wait about twenty minutes to be seated but we knew our little guy would love it! Once seated we ordered and our food arrived a short time later. I had the classic hamburger, my daughter had the BLT, my little guy had pancakes and sausage and my husband also had the burger! The prices were very reasonable! We loved the 50s theme and 50s playlist! I would have loved to also sit at the counter and enjoy the milkshake. Maybe next time.

    Decor & themes make places like this a ton of fun but landing the perfect server is really what…read moremakes the experience. I was having a rough day & chose Sunliner to try & make me feel better. Upon walking in I saw two full size car booths & a jukebox. The vibe was exactly what I was looking for. I'm happy to say we got HUNNY as our server & she was the best & she cheered me right up. She was wearing a bright yellow dress & singing along with the jukebox. We talked doo-wop songs & I got recommendations for what to order. I decided on Country Fried Chicken with Mashed Potatos & it did not disappoint. The shakes are also really good & come with a waffle on top. We ended up going back the next day (HUNNY was off) but we still had a nice time. Tried the chicken & waffles & biscuits & gravy this time. There really wasn't anything bad that we tried & if you're lucky, you might get HUNNY & have a 5 Star Experience like we did. Would I return for a third time? YES!

    This diner is a blast from the past, right down to the benches and the tables, every table has a…read morecoat and hat rack attached to it. A reminder of the days when men and women dressed with class and wore hats and coats to dinner.. Mills has this inherent 50s vibe, but the menu is quite up-to-date and everything is delicious. You can't go wrong with the burgers, I'm just telling you they've got something for everyone's taste. Even the sides don't disappoint, and the milkshakes are enough for two people, at least it was enough for the two of us. My engine rings were fantastic, breaded to perfection, and plenty of them came with my meal. Our waitress was tremendous also, quick drink refills, brought our food, hot, and prepared to give helpful and delicious recommendations from the menu. They do sell their merchandise at the checkout, but what do you expect, this is pigeon Forge for goodness sake! Everyone is Hawking their stuff . We are definitely planning on coming back and trying something different. Their menu is diverse and I think that we could come back for years and never have the same thing twice.

    First time here, overall decent place. It's a good 1950s diner, typical of what you see normally…read more It was a happening place, all seats were filled, there was probably 60 guests there. The staff was running back and fourth, overall the wait time was not and at all. I had a chili, cheese, mushroom, back, burger, onion rings, and a root beer float. The service was decent, the food was ok, not greatest but not the best I've had either. I wouldn't mind returning and trying something else next time.
