The Gateway Diner was a classic, all American restaurant established in 1939 in Philipsburg, New Jersey. After being toured around Germany, the diner found its final resting place in 2010, in the small town of Almere in the Netherlands. The town was founded in 1976, easily making it the oldest building in town.
Many entrepreneurs have tried to establish American-inspired restaurants in the area, but all would eventually fail.
Lying dormant for the past few years, the diner is now taking on new life. A group of artists are renovating the old building as part of a new art-centered playground.
