A 1942 diner relocated to Framingham

Built by the Worcester Lunch Car Company in 1942, this historic diner was moved to its current home in 1990.

Lloyd's Diner is a historic diner located at 184A Fountain Street in Framingham, Massachusetts. Built in 1942 as unit #783 by the Worcester Lunch Car Company, the structure has a long history of service and changing ownership.

The diner spent its early years in Orange, Massachusetts, where it was known as Whit's Diner. It was operated by Robert and Richard Whitney until about 1960. Following that time, it operated under other ownership as the Orange Diner.

In 1990, Richard and Joan Lloyd purchased the diner and moved it to its present location in Framingham. Today, it operates as Lloyd's Diner and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.
