While Gilmore Girls fans prepare for the arrival of reboot Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life to Netflix (and Netflix Canada) this November, the streaming service is bringing a part of Stars Hollow to life.
To commemorate the 16th anniversary of the series premiere — Gilmore Girls first premiered on Oct. 5, 2000 — Netflix Canada is opening four temporary Luke’s Diner locations to Toronto and one in Vancouver.
Fans can celebrate the show’s “Gilmoreversary” on Wednesday, Oct. 5 by grabbing a coffee at Luke’s Diner, the iconic eatery featured in Gilmore Girls. You’ll feel just like Lorelai and Rory.

The revival of Gilmore Girls brings back the popular mother-daughter dramedy that aired from 2000 to 2007. Each of the four upcoming 90-minute chapters covers each of four seasons of the year.
