Gilmore Girls Luke’s Coffee Mug Mini Scentsy Warmer

A few fun facts about Luke’s Diner on the Gilmore Girls:

• Luke’s Diner wasn’t always supposed to be Luke’s. In the original script, the character was written as a woman named Daisy who owned the diner. The writers switched gears, turned Daisy into Luke, and the rest is Gilmore Girls history.

• Those plaid flannels? Totally intentional. Luke’s signature look became his unofficial uniform, and fans still associate the diner with that cozy, small-town style.

• Coffee was practically a character of its own. Lorelai and Rory’s obsession with caffeine was fueled almost entirely by Luke’s never-ending coffee pot. If Luke had charged per refill, Stars Hollow might’ve seen a whole new economy.

• The diner itself was movie magic. Luke’s was filmed on the Warner Bros. backlot in Burbank, California, and the same building has appeared in plenty of other shows and movies under different disguises.

• That “No Cell Phones” sign on the wall? A perfect nod to Luke’s no-nonsense personality, long before screen-free dining became a trend.

• And here’s the coolest part: for one glorious day in 2016, Luke’s Diner popped up in real life. More than 200 coffee shops across the U.S. and Canada transformed into Luke’s, complete with free coffee, branded cups, and all the Gilmore nostalgia fans could handle.
