The building is still standing, but there will be no pancakes this morning at the Caldwell Diner, following a three-alarm fire that erupted around 3:30 a.m. Although there were no flames, tendrils of smoke still wafted from the diner, at 332 Bloomfield Ave. in Caldwell, at 7 a.m. Units from Caldwell, West Caldwell, Essex Fells, Fairfield and Cedar Grove were on the scene. The Caldwell Fire Chief wouldn’t give information on the scene but promised a release on the fire later today.




Who in God’s name cares what happens in Caldwell. Since when is that part of Baristaville — even the expanded version?
Interesting stoy here about protesters in Long Island. Why isn’t Baristanet covering this?
Sloppy bowling by India gives Sri Lanka a victory in the tri-series final. (It’s a cricket match.) Why isn’t Baristanet covering this?
Aukland woman threatens her blind neighbor!
I can’t believe Baristanet has failed yet again to keep me informed as to what’s going on everywhere.
baristaville regulars–why so aggressively provincial? The Caldwell Diner is a cool place on Bloomfield Ave that is probably less than 3 or 4 miles from where you live. Your coolness is really square! I hope the Caldwell Diner is up and running soon!
Damn, should have had the pancakes the other day!
The pancakes are now hotcakes.
More relevant to Baristanet fans than Caldwell, there was a fire in Bloomfield Saturday morning that has displaced at least one family if not two.
Nice to know the Barista is keeping everyone informed of LOCAL happenings.
