Welcome to 902 Franklin Street, a Treasure of Michigan City Americana. Before the days when busy streets were lined with the fast food chains there were literally hundreds of all American Mom and Pop Dine's. One of the most popular varieties of these old time diners was the Valentine Diner.Webster's Dictionary defines a diner as a restaurant in the shape of a railroad car.'' In the case of Valentine Diners, as well as many others, this was true as the manufacturing design reflected the style of railroad dining cars. B uilt as a diner and then used as a Barber shop, this is a gem of a treasure located at the up and coming Up Town Arts District of Michigan City, IN.
