Highway 16 Diner – Dead and Gone

Wednesday, December 16, 2009
By Kathy Smith

I was really sorry to see this happen, but yet another restaurant in Helotes has closed and left town.

I thought the Diner was doing pretty well.  Of course, I had no reason to think that, except I had been there many times and liked it, I had seen firefighters and police officers eating there, and every time I drove by, there were always cars parked there .

I was told that it was due to management differences.  It’s too bad they couldn’t work things out.

What I’m worried about is, and I really hope this isn’t true, but you know how some locations just never make it, no matter what restaurant is opened there?  Unfortunately, this location is 0 for 2.

Maybe it will do better in 2010.
