A familiar Riverdale Filming Locations, Rocko's Diner is seen in the Riverdale Netflix series as Pop's Chocklit Shoppe. Known originally as Nick’s Diner and then the Hi-Lite Burger Bar, it likely would have been the perfect hangout for Archie, Jughead, Betty, Veronica and all the rest of the gang from the Archie comics series.
Rocko’s was used as Pop’s Chock’Lit Shoppe in just the pilot episode for the show, with the production building their own version on a lot in Langley after the show was green-lit. But images of Rocko’s were used in promotional shots, and it’s now the closest that fans of the show can get to experiencing life in Riverdale.
Over 60 years Rocko’s is still standing, and now, thanks to the magic of television, Archie and the gang from the hit show Riverdale have actually hung out at the iconic Mission establishment.
Rocko’s Diner is one of the last free standing diners in BC. We are family owned and operated and take a great sense of pride in being a successful independent restaurant in this time of franchised and national chains. Percy Jackson the Lightning Thief, The Tortured, Killer Amongst Us are a few of the movies that have used Rocko’s as a site location.
