You’ll Absolutely Love This Retro Themed Diner In Delaware
Do you remember when you would come home with a good report card, and go out with your family to celebrate? Maybe your grandparents would spoil you after a weekend with them and treat you to a big ice cream sundae. If you grew up in northern Delaware, chances are you’ve had many meals like that at the Charcoal Pit, Wilmington’s famous vintage diner that serves up nearly the same exact menu they did when they opened in 1956.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life.

The Original Charcoal Pit is located at 2600 Concord Pike, Wilmington, DE 19803







This sundae contains 20 scoops of vanilla, chocolate and strawberry ice cream, banana
spears, chocolate syrup, crushed pineapple, cherries, and wet walnuts, and it is loaded with whipped cream! Do you think you could make a dent?
