Do you ever wish you could travel back to a different era to experience all it had to offer? Sure, we can put our Elvis albums on our record player, don the poodle skirts, and roll the hula hoop around our waists to take us back to the 50s, but…for a real 1950s experience, we really should head to this retro diner in East Providence, Rhode Island, where it’s all about good food and old-school friendliness.
Pazi's Place exudes such authenticity that you might expect Fonzie to glide on in, lift his thumb up, and give out an "aay." And that's the whole point of this old-school diner in East Providence.
A family-owned business, Pazi's Place is all about keeping the 50s alive for those who were there and bringing it to life for those born long after. From checkered floors to red booths, the diner oozes 50s charm.
For a truly authentic experience, grab a seat at the counter. Nothing says 50s diner like sipping a float or a shake as you watch your food being made.

The East Providence diner also offers a few tables outdoors seasonally if you prefer soaking up the sun.
The menu is 50s-themed, too, with all meals sporting an icon's name. You might want to dig into a Jack's Benny (an eggs Benedict) or The Ginger Rogers (a sausage, pepper, salsa, and cheddar omelet).
