Classic American diner with a modern twist, serving everything from breakfast to burgers to late night fare, vegetarian dishes, milkshakes, and more! Mels has been in operation since 1947. You've seen us featured in countless movies and TV Shows, most notably 1973's street rod classic film, "American Graffiti." Our present day inception includes updates such as craft draft beers, grass fed beed, fresh juices and smoothies, but we still serve our tried and true American favorites.
