ONEONTA – Whether you’re in the mood for a classic porkchop dinner, some classic Italian fare or even a pizza to take to a party, Nick’s Diner will soon have you covered.
Under the new ownership of Rodney Thorsland, the rennovated West End establishment is slated to open in early January. "The idea has always been to preserve it, to upgrade it, but have it historical-looking," Thorsland said.
He and Ed May, who owns the property, appear to have fulfilled their vision. May, who worked on the building's structural design, kept the arched ceilings and narrow width of the railroad car the diner's founders used when they ran Bob & Dan’s Diner in 1927.
