After enjoying the chow at the Union Diner stop by the pet shop next door and get your pup some special treats.

I think that, possibly, the Union Diner evolved from the Paugus Bay Diner that was located farther west on Union Avenue about where the former Burger King was located. 🍽

Inside the Union Diner there is an old "Paugus Bay Diner" sign on the wall.

Default Union Diner

The diner which was located where Burger King once was (now Watermark Marine business) was called the Shore Diner. It was torn down when Burger King came to town and built the present building. The Paugus Diner (now called Union Diner) was essentially in the same location as it is today but closer to the road. It was moved back to its present location when the mini mall was built there. As well as serving lunch and dinner, they have a wonderful breakfast menu - friendly staff and the food is always good.

Looks more like it should be called "beaching" with some of those boats!

A correction to my earlier post, the old sign on the wall inside reads "Paugus Diner" not "Paugus Bay Diner". Another good breakfast today.

Side note ... I'm not the same person as "topwater" without the space (-) between Top and Water

Default Yum!

Stopped in at the Union Diner on Sunday morning for breakfast before heading over to MVYC to bottom paint "The Breeze" The food was great, hot and prompt. The waitstaff was friendly and welcoming. I ran into a friend seated behind me (you know who you are Doug) who was there with his wife and they were thoroughly enjoying their breakfast too. I was alone seated at the counter but always felt like I belonged to the Diner family. The owner took a few minutes to talk and see if I was happy with my experience there. Absolutely!

Union Diner surprisingly has one of the best tap lists in the area. It's not a big list but what they have is very good.

This diner must get mentioned a couple times a year on this site. I can't remember anyone complaining about it!

I drove by a couple days ago and it looked closed. I liked the place. Does anyone know what's happening with The Union Diner?
