The 100-Year-Old Diner In Brooklyn That Never Closes - Chowhound
"Nowhere is that more the case than Kellogg's Diner in Brooklyn - one of the spots we recommend to try out if you only have 24 hours in New York. The diner originally opened in 1928 at the corner of Metropolitan and Union in the Williamsburg, Brooklyn - where it still is today. The diner stays open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, serving items like pancakes, waffles, omelets, sandwiches, wings, and fries. You could order breakfast at any time of the day."
"In 2023, Kellogg's fell on hard times and was in danger of closing until New York restaurateur Louis Skibar purchased the diner to give it a second life. He hired local New York City chef Jackie Carnesi to take over the kitchen, cut back on some of the diner's 200 menu items, and modernize the restaurant to appeal to both older and younger locals."
Kellogg's Diner opened in 1928 at the corner of Metropolitan and Union in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and remains at that location. The diner operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, serving pancakes, waffles, omelets, sandwiches, wings, fries, and other classics. Facing closure in 2023, the diner was purchased by restaurateur Louis Skibar, who enlisted local chef Jackie Carnesi to overhaul the kitchen, reduce a sprawling 200-item menu, and modernize the operation. Chef Carnesi added Tex‑Mex dishes reflecting her Texas heritage—guajillo braised short rib hash, chilaquiles verdes, enchiladas suizas, stuffed poblanos—while preserving diner staples like chicken and waffles, burgers, and the counter barstool experience.
