Waverly Diner
(In the West Village on 6th Avenue at Waverly Place)
You guys, did you hear the news? The Waverly Diner has reopened, and it hasn’t been made soulless or horrible. I had a quite enjoyable late breakfast there last weekend with my brother, who was visiting from the Last Frontier. (No, not outer space (that’s the final frontier) Alaska, where I grew up.) I had been worried about the fate of the Waverly, an icon of the West Village, when I heard about the gut renovation and saw the sign dark earlier this winter. But a leisurely feast of silver dollar pancakes and plenty of coffee reassured me that all is well on this corner of 6th Avenue & Waverly Place.
The sign is a colorful beacon in orangish red and kelly green that wraps around the corner facade, with classic curved As and a list of meals served, which would be all of them. So happy to see this corner alight again.
So that concludes my catching up (though I may make a post soon of news & updates). I’m going to venture out tomorrow night if this lingering cough doesn’t get any worse and see what I can see in Queens. Apologies, by the way, to anyone who has emailed me in the last couple of weeks — I’m working to catch up with that, too.
