Dinerland, located in Rockford, MI. is made up of three vintage diners;

A 1947 Jerry O’Mahoney Dining Car that was once Uncle Bob's Diner in Flint, MI. used as a gift shop by Dinerland creator Jerry Berta when he still operated it. It is in need of some work.

Another, originally the Garden of Eatin' formerly located in Fulton, NY. and now after renovations is a sports bar with Friday night karaoke.

And thirdly, the most famous diner of all, Rosie's Diner.

Rosie's Diner, a 1946 Paramount Deluxe Dining Car, 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 Paper Towel 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. Rosie’s Diner 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 (some however say the name change didn't occur until moved to its current location). Within five years, Rosie’s was proud to announce that it had served over one million customers.

Try the meatloaf!!!

Also located at Dinerland is a mini-golf course with diner food related obstacles. The golf course needs a little TLC, but the new owners are working hard returning Dinerland back to the glory Jerry worked so hard to create.
