Chances are you've heard something about Hillary Clinton choking up (or crying as some have mistakenly called it) in New Hampshire. There are no tears but she was in a diner, or at least that how I have heard it reported by some media.

The "diner" seems to be Cafe Espresso http://cafe--espresso.com/ in Portsmouth, N.H.
It is hard to tell from the website what its Diner Project score would be, but I think it might not be too high on the Diner Project scale. It sounds like they have a counter to eat at so perhaps its score is 1, 2 or 3.
