| - "The last Stop before The 60s," And My first stop when I am craving chicken pot pie and cherry coke. Whenever I come here, I can't help feeling like I am in "back to the future II" and mc fly is going to walk in the front door at any moment. The diner is something you would see on a 50s movie set. Checkerboard floors, old movie posters and portraits of classic movie stars, fire engine red vinyl booths, mini juke boxes on the tables, and the big bopper blaring from the overhead speakers. You are transported back to a time when a gallon of gas cost $.18c , and life seemed...well, cheaper.
There is a reason why ZAGAT has awarded 5&Diner "top family restaurant," for its fun and child friendly atmosphere - as well as winning accolades from AOL City Guide, The Rep, Phoenix Magazine, and New Times for "best cheap eats, breakfast, best diner, hamburger, and best late night dining"
This particular location is only open until 11p, but there are other valley locations such as the 16th street diner that are open for 24 hours, and I have been there on numerous occasions with the after-bar crowd to feast on one of their 12 signature burgers such as the "Blue Moon Burger"
Shakes, malts, chocolate sodas, pies, burgers, and fries...you know what to expect from a diner, and you will get it!
