Rosie's Diner at Dinerland is where the commercials for Bounty™ Paper Towels were filmed. But it didn't happen here...
Rosie’s Diner started out as The Silver Dollar Diner in Little Ferry, New Jersey. A fixture on the east coast, The Silver Dollar Diner was chosen to be featured in a series of classic Bounty television commercials featuring Nancy Walker as Rosie the waitress.
In honor of the advertisements, The Silver Dollar Diner was renamed Rosie’s Diner in the 1970’s (some say this name change didn't happen until it was moved to Michigan). Rosie’s Dinner, a 1946 Paramount Deluxe Dining Car, remained in New Jersey until 1991 when Jerry Berta purchased the diner. Rosie’s Diner was moved to Michigan and opened for business on July 5th, 1991. Within five years, Rosie’s was proud to announce that it had served over one million customers.
