A North Shore diner that has been around for a long time has shut down.
According to a post from Eater Boston, The Tumble Inn Diner is closed, with co-owner Laurie Cunha indicating that the COVID-19 pandemic and an "uncooperative" landlord were reasons for its closure. It is not known whether the eatery might try to reopen in another space, nor is it known what might be going into its Lincoln Avenue space, so keep checking back for updates.
Eater mentions that The Tumble Inn Diner's history dates back more than 60 years, while an earlier Wicked Local article mentions that its roots may actually stretch back more than 70 years. (Cunha and Rich Scirocco took over the restaurant back in 2013.)
The address for The Tumble Inn Diner was 488 Lincoln Avenue, Saugus, MA, 01906.
