Saved By The Max Diner Opens In Chicago, A Real Life ‘Saved By The Bell’ Diner

Saved By The Max, a diner inspired by hit 90s sitcom Saved By The Bell, opened on Wednesday in Chicago — and it looks identical to the show’s most popular set — The Max.

‘Saved By The Bell’ Diner Becomes A Reality In Chicago

The Max diner was the go-to hangout spot for the show’s core group. Zack Morris, Kelly Kapowski, A.C. Slater, Lisa Turtle and Screech were seen at The Max in most episodes of the series’ run.   

The new Chicago pop-up eatery has everything from The Max’s neon lights and style, to the jukebox, and the red booths. Menu items even include A.C. Sliders, Mac & Screech and a Preppy BLT.

Saved By The Max was founded by bar events manager Derek Berry, who has supposedly been a fan of the 90s sitcom since he was a kid.  

The diner is open until August 3, and is booked for its entire run. Limited walk-ins are available.
