In 2018, The New Munson Diner opened its doors under the ownership of Christos and John Kritikos.

“Liberty means freedom,” Christos says with a smile, “and the diner has given us not only freedom, but a new lease on life. We treat everyone like family—and the people here,” he said with a wave of his hand, “are the best. I love everybody here. The community has embraced us, and we’ve only just begun.”  (The River Reporter, 2019)
