Diner is a type of fast-food restaurant that is typical for North America, especially the Midwest, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and other northeastern states of America, although such establishments can be found throughout the United States, Canada and in some places in Western Europe . Some people use the term “diner” only for eateries that are located in detached buildings of a traditional style, others - to refer to any eateries that have a similar range of dishes and atmosphere, even if they are located in ordinary buildings. Diners are characterized by a wide range of dishes mainly from American cuisine, a relaxed atmosphere and a mode of work until late. A distinctive feature of classic American diners is the widespread use of stainless steel for their design, which creates a unique architecture of diners.
