Ace Diner

There used to be one spot in every town where people would go for coffee, food as well as news, sort of like a social networking site only with real people and real networking. The idea is making a big comeback, and in the city of Dickson a new meeting place is in the same spot as the old-time meeting place. Tennessee Crossroads went to take a look at, and get a taste of the Ace Diner in downtown Dickson, TN.
