You can find Ford assembly line workers chowing down after their shifts at Brownies Diner in Wayne, Michigan. At the very least, you can't miss the huge arrow on this fine looking sign. Brownie's is not a freestanding diner like a Paramount or Kullman though.

Brownie’s Diner opened in 1937 by Brownie himself but sold to the present owner in the 1970’s. Ford Motor has three plants in the town. The help is friendly and the breakfast fare is delicious. Many thanks to Greg Stachura for info. 04-09
