MADE IN PHILLY: GEETS DINER

Geet's Diner

Geet's Diner has been a landmark in Williamstown, NJ since the 1940s -- often a midpoint stop for families driving from Philly to the Jersey Shore. The diner closed abruptly a few years ago due to bankruptcy and sat vacant for a year -- until local businesswoman Sandy Cannon bought it and gave it a new life.

Now there's not only a new owner, but a new chef... a new lounge... and whole new look!
