Daily News | An iconic South Jersey diner serves its last meal
Dwayne Davis headed around the corner from his apartment to Cherry Hill Diner on Sunday afternoon, just as he had done hundreds of times before. He planned to order his usual: a plate of waffles and eggs, with some soup to go.
By 3 p.m., the place had run out of food, emptied out by a week of emotional regulars crowding in for one last burger or just one more cup of coffee. Davis showed up just after 4 p.m. — and had to content himself with a menu to take home, given to him by the staff as a souvenir.“It’s very sad. It’s the end of an era,” said Margie Buckley, a server at the diner for about four years. “There have been a lot of tears around here.
Others worry about what will become of the regulars, many of whom are elderly and rely on the diner as a kind of community center. “The car wash came in and gave us the right price,” he said. “I’m not too happy, but we had no choice.”
