Diner

A diner is a cheap rabbit hole restaurant found in The Sims 3.

Gameplay descriptions
Unlike the bistro, diners are open 24 hours.

Diners generate the following red map tag in-game:



Eating at the Diner can earn Sims the following moodlets:

This is the place where you can fill your empty stomach with junk food any time, get a job in the Culinary Career, attend a Cooking class, or attend a weekly eating contest.

At the location you can either have a drink or eat inside. It's remarkably cheaper (unless you have the discount diner lifetime reward or have high enough level in the culinary career) and faster than eating at the bistro, although there seems to be no related wish in eating here and the Sim receives a lower moodlet than if they ate at the bistro.

You may buy a partner's deed for §6,000 and then buy out the property for an additional §18,000. It's the cheapest business to become a partner in, and a good start if you plan to buy out the city as your Sim's retirement plan.

Sunset Valley & Riverview
Hogan's Deep-Fried Diner is the basic diner of Sunset Valley and Riverview in The Sims 3. Its style is that of a classic 1950s diner. In Sunset Valley, it is near the Sunset Institute of Modern Art, the office building, and perhaps ironically, the hospital. In Riverview, it is located behind Doo Peas Corporate Tower and adjacent to Fort Salas Military Base.

Twinbrook
Brunton's Boxcar Diner is the diner for Twinbrook. As its name suggests, it resembles an old-style railroad car or streetcar, which has been remodeled into a diner and which no longer sits on rails. It appears to be smaller in size than the Hogan's Deep-Fried Diners located in Sunset Valley or Riverview. The diner is located across from River Junction Beach Park, and near Twinbrook Foundation Hospital.
