That prompts a thread-start...

1.) Your Favorite Diner or Luncheonette (must have a counter)... (I'll even allow Midwestern Tea Rooms as choices..) and..

2.) Your Favorite Eats therein..

I'll start with three...

FAMOUS LUNCH, TROY, NY: Miniature hot dogs in the "New York System" tradition with a Michigan style sauce. Hysterical joint in downtrodden downtown Troy. Since 1932

SWAN'S OYSTER DEPOT, SAN FRANCISCO (Polk & California): Unbelievable crab louis, oysters, shrimp, etc.. at the long counter.

PONZIO'S, CHERRY HILL, NJ: Between the NJ Tpke and Philly.. About as quintessential as it gets for diner.. Hot Turkey Sandwich, Brown Gravy (NOT yellow, thanks..)
Without a doubt Clark's on Clark, Chicago, IL

And sadly enough, their Nachos are the best nachos I've ever had. Got them the first time, and never changed my mind since!

West of the Mississippi? Cup and Saucer, Portland, OR. Best eggs over easy and hash browns I've ever had!
