BALLSTON SPA — A restored and renamed Route 50 Diner is set to reopen under new ownership as the Doubleday Diner.
The business shared several videos on its Facebook page recently, showing off its revamped interior and exterior look. Signage on the front door indicated that the eatery will be open seven days a week, from 6 a.m. until 3 p.m.
“Doubleday Diner is working hard to reopen as soon as possible,” the company said in one post. “Our goal is to create a space where the community can come together and enjoy unforgettable moments around good food.”
Prior to closing permanently, the Route 50 Diner faced a number of issues, including a temporary closure following a health inspection on May 30, 2024 that revealed an apparent, ongoing pest control issue. The diner was also temporarily closed in 2023 by the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance due to alleged unpaid taxes.
