Tastee Diner in Silver Spring will close permanently on Wednesday.
An employee at the iconic diner located at 8601 Cameron Street in Downtown Silver Spring told myMCM that they were told of the closure Wednesday morning with no explanation given.
This comes as a surprise. I feel for the owners who feel they have to close and the employees who worked at Tastee Diner. I wish them the best. We'll miss our Downtown Silver Spring institution. https://t.co/ygVGyaV9XH
