Digital Delights from Moody's History

Photo and media galleries are usually one of the most popular parts of any website, and if you are also one to enjoy pictures and digital recordings, then you are sure to enjoy this collection that encompasses the Moody mystique.

Here at Moody's Diner, Motel, and Gifts we have history, current events, and travelers. A number of years ago, people visiting well-known places around the world began sending us pictures of themselves wearing Moody's Diner-related T-shirts and sweatshirts. Many of these photos have been placed on the walls of Moody's Diner!

Enjoy some of this history we've saved just for you!

Yankee contributor and longtime Moody’s Diner patron Mike Urban salutes the popular Maine eatery, where fresh doughnuts, hot sandwiches, and to-die-for pie have made it a roadside favorite for nearly a century.

Located on the stretch of Route 1 between Portland, Maine, and Acadia National Park, Moody’s Diner is a long-standing, hugely popular roadside spot that has something for everyone — especially pie!

We have continued to be a Moody family tradition since our beginning in 1927. Moody’s founders, Percy and Bertha Moody, started it all when they opened three small cabins on the top of the hill, charging $1 a night. They then opened a small Tea Room (later known as Aunt Letta’s House) to serve dinner to their guests and those traveling up and down Maine’s coast. The following year a lunch wagon was opened and later moved down the hill when Route 1 was re-routed in 1934. That same lunch wagon was expanded many, many times to become the Diner that we now know today.

The Diner is still owned and operated by the children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of Percy and Bertha. And, a good two dozen of them are still involved or employed at the Diner today. We hope that you will visit us soon and that it feels . . . like coming HOME!
