Frequently Asked Questions




Find a diner to film in Atlanta

Diners are a timeless element of the American cultural landscape, a place where people come together and socialize over meals. They're so relatable that diners have become a major setting in movies and TV series, which is why it makes so much sense to film a scene in a diner. But how do you go about doing that?
Diners don't allow anyone to just walk in with a camera, after all. And many are too busy year-round to allow people to come in and start filming. You have a few options: you could use a green screen at a film production studio. Green screens let you transport your cast anywhere, even into a digital diner. Atlanta has some of the best video studios in the country with green screen technology. You could find a film-friendly diner in Atlanta. Or you could film in a set designed to look like a diner.

Discover authentic diner sets in Atlanta

Diner sets are designed to look like an authentic restaurant scene without the hassles of working in an actual eatery. They have all of the props you'll need, including booths, tables, cutlery, warm interior lighting, and countertops for a bar. Diner sets are booked by the hour or day, though you can rent them for longer periods at a reduced rate.
Sets designed to look like important scenes, like hospitals, diners, salons, and prisons are also designed with photographers and filmmakers in mind. Instead of having to rely on ambient lighting and whatever plugs are open in an authentic venue, a filming set will have lights and plugs arranged to suit your needs. They can also be designed for vintage storytelling, whereas most film friendly diners or salons are going to have contemporary decor that might not suit your movie's narrative.

Film-friendly diner locations in Atlanta

Atlanta has been a film-friendly city for decades as many hit TV shows and movies have been filmed here. For example, Chops Lobster Bar in the Buckhead district was featured in several films, including MacGyver and Queen America.
To work in a film-friendly diner or restaurant, you'll need to first reach out to the business owners. There may be releases and legal forms to sign stating you won't show the faces of the staff or film in certain areas deemed off-limits. You may be expected to film after hours or on a holiday when the restaurant is closed. But once you've reached an agreement there are few better places to book for a movie than a film-friendly diner in Atlanta!

Spacious Downtown Event Space Sun Drenched 50s Retro Neon Diner Restaurant Cafe Studio with New York Style City View DTLA
This location is perfect for a diner setting! The food props look real. Immediately from walking in I loved the pops of color and bright lighting. The sun is super bright in the afternoon. Bring a reflector for photos. Will definitely be booking again...
