History

The original Pantry diner in Rockville Centre, New York circa 1949.

In 1949 the Pantry diner was born. With a seating capacity of 40 it was a quintessential American diner.

The second Pantry diner in Rockville Centre, New York circa 1958.

In 1958 the Pantry owners expanded and brought in a new diner to replace the original. This one brought the seating capacity to 80.

The current building of the Pantry diner in Rockville Centre, New York circa 1973.

In 1973 we built the current building, a 190 seat Deraffele modular diner. Delivered in 7 pieces it was put together and finished on site at the exact same location as the two previous versions of Pantry.

The New Pantry built in 2018. Same location at the original with a seating capacity of 250.

The current Pantry reimagined and rebuilt in 2018. Same family ownership since 1949.
