Re: Area Businesses of the Past...
I thought so. I remember seeing the outside sign riding my bicycle on the sidewalk going by there when I was a young-un. Sure was some loud yelling going on in there that day, the front door was open on a hot summer day, remember that very well.noreply66 wrote:YES...can't remember if that is the one that had the one lane bowling alley

Use to be the Wooden shoe in the 60's and 70's. Don't know about the 80's. Think it was the 90's when the building got tore down.

Re: Area Businesses of the Past...
Heck, I thought it was the Shoe across from Tanskys. I'm lost then.




Re: Area Businesses of the Past...
I don't know the name of the bar across from Tansky's.
I just remember the bar Tally-Ho in town.
I loved the Hide-Away. Remember one night when Big Daddy Stewart was drunk and pulled the whole bar over.

Seems like the bar across from Tansky's had an inn name attached to it.Wasn't the Wooden Shoe up by Spring St. somewhere in the area of the Utopia.Big D will know where it was at,I will ask him next time I see him,he might even know the name of that other bar.

Re: Area Businesses of the Past...
I know where your talking about,the bar was on the other side of the street in an old building.It was just down from the library or maybe where the libary is now.
Re: Area Businesses of the Past...
across from Tansky's heading West was Fox Market, a bar???. barbershop,Bills house, a couple motels, might have been another house between Bills and the motels. Just can't remember the name of the bar.
