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:

Image	Moodlet Name	Mood Effect	Time Period	Game Dialog/Description	Notes
	Great Meal	+25-35 Mood	8 Hours	Great meals can be rare, but when a Sim dines upon such a delicious feast, it will be remembered for some time.	Very Nice to Great quality food. Or high quality dried food if the Sims does not have the Snob trait.
	Stuffed	No Mood Effect	3 Hours	Forcing Sims to eat when they are not hungry may lead to a loss of appetite and weight gain.	Eating with this moodlet makes Sim fatter. Appears when eating while not hungry. Less likely to experience weight gain with the Fast Metabolism lifetime reward.

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.
