Step up into the car and you are in a room built for the plate in front of you. Red stools line the counter, the grill is in plain view and the cooks talk to you over the pass.
Come for hash browns and eggs in the morning or a late burger after the show. The door stays unlocked.

A glimpse inside
Life at the counter.
Step in from West 7th Street and take a seat at the counter. Red stools, polished metal and a view straight into the kitchen make the dining car a place to watch as well as eat.
From your stool, the action is right in front of you. The video follows the cooks at work, with food coming off the grill and plates taking shape just across the counter. Coffee mugs, glasses and the bustle of the kitchen fill the space between orders.
Along the counter, guests settle in over their meals while the staff keep moving behind the pass. The narrow car brings everyone into the same room, with windows on one side and the kitchen on the other.
Outside, the red-and-cream frontage carries that same character onto the street. As daylight gives way to evening, the illuminated rooftop sign and warm windows give Mickey’s a different glow.
Come in, pull up a stool and see the diner from the other side of the window.
Ask your server for the full menu. These are the plates our regulars order most.
