Parked next to City Hall, this Providence institution is basically a diner on the back of a truck that has rolled into the same spot every evening for decades. Climb up a rickety ladder to get basic diner fare alongside everyone from drunks to prominent politicians and college kids pulling an all-nighter. The murder burger comes highly recommended.
Legend has it that the business started as a horse-drawn lunch wagon in 1893, giving it the dubious title of oldest food cart in the country.
