Phoenicia Diner, located in Upstate New York’s Hudson Valley, is proud to call itself “a diner in the middle of nowhere,” providing guests an escape from the hustle and bustle of the New York metropolitan area. But don’t underestimate this small-town spot — it serves 160,000 people per year, goes through 12,000 pounds of brisket during that time to make its popular Reubens and corned beef hash — cured in-house — and serves 1,000 of its famous pancakes on its busiest days. Recognize this diner? You might have spotted it dressed up as “Pip’s Diner” in the last season of the Apple+ TV show Severance.
