Casey's Diner   

Hearty fare cooked to order is served to an adoring local crowd at Casey's, a living, cooking piece of Americana. Housed in an old lunch cart and built like a trolley, Casey's has watched generations in Natick grow up within its walls, and then return to initiate their own children. Casey's may be best loved for its hot dogs, slathered with ketchup, mustard, pickles and onions and made like hot dogs are meant to be. Year after year, more folks discover Casey's and are quickly turned into fans. The tiny diner has remained nearly unchanged for close to a century. The grilled cheese, hamburgers and pie are complemented by a genuine sense of community, personality and tradition; this is as about as close to the Norman Rockwell snapshot of America as you can get. There's also an outside window for take out orders, so if all the 10 or so seats inside are taken, you can grab your burger on the run. While many restaurant chains try to reproduce the early 20th-century feel, Casey's never lost it to begin with.
