The Corner Lunch Diner is a historic diner at 133 Lamartine Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. It is the largest diner in the city, and a rare example in New England of remodeling work done by the Musi Dining Car Company of Carteret, New Jersey. The diner was built c. 1955 by DeRaffele Diners of New Rochelle, New York, and first installed in Babylon, New York. It was acquired in 1968 by Demetrious Efstathiou, who operated a lunchroom called the Corner Lunch on the site where the diner is now situated. Alterations were made by the Musi Company at the time to fit the diner to the site.[2]

The diner was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.[1]
