One of my gentle readers informed me just last week that there had been some changes at the Telford Diner, an East Tennessee classic eatery. Having waved goodbye to our friend the Retiree who, predictably, was off once again on another of her traveling adventures, my dining partner and I decided to visit Telford and see what renovations our friends Warren and Vickie Browder had made to their restaurant. The Telford Diner is the âpictured-in-the-dictionaryâ example of a classic family-run Tennessee restaurant. It is located in the town of Telford, just a stoneâs throw from Old State Route 34, (now Tenn. Highway 353). After a quick turn onto Telford Road, you make a quick left turn just over the Little Limestone Creek Bridge onto Mill Street. A minute or two more and youâll see a yellow building with a sign identifying the place. Restaurant parking is ample on both sides of Mill Street.
