Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Inc, has revealed plans to open two new Tesla Diner locations following the success of the first diner in Hollywood, California. The Tesla Diner, which opened in July, offers a unique experience for Tesla customers and fans, featuring robot waiters, cybertruck food trays, and drive-in vibes.
About the Tesla Diner
The Tesla Diner is available to both Tesla and non-Tesla customers and provides a space to charge electric vehicles, buy memorabilia, and grab a bite to eat while watching a movie. The diner has been a huge success, with Musk recently highlighting its strength in a tweet.
Musk Teases More Tesla Diners
Musk’s plans to open a drive-in restaurant with charging stalls date back to 2018. The concept has finally become a reality, with the first Tesla Diner location offering more than just vehicle charging. Musk has hinted that new locations could be in the works, suggesting that areas near Tesla’s Giga Texas HQ in Austin and engineering HQ in Palo Alto would be ideal locations.
Potential New Locations
The comment from Musk suggests that Tesla may open new diner locations in areas with existing headquarters, such as:
- Palo Alto, California
- Austin, Texas

These breakfast-themed menu items add to the existing lineup, which includes burgers, fries, hot dogs, tuna melts, and slices of pies. Tesla offers ordering 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to Tesla vehicles, with the diner open to the public from 6 am to midnight local time.

Future Plans
While the Tesla Diner is currently a small part of the Tesla business, it has the potential to become another business line for the company and expand to more locations globally. With the success of the first location, it will be interesting to see how Tesla develops this concept and whether it will become a major player in the food and hospitality industry.
