From the outside, this Springfield landmark looks like a converted turn of the century warehouse. The truth is, until 1986, it was a gravel lot with a fireworks stand. Inside, we took our cues from the forties. We know the plaid carpets don’t match; they reminded us of Grandma’s sofas. Our neon clock boasts “Good eats since 1947.” That was the year Mike (our president and co-founder) was born. Vintage Major League Baseball and local photos remind you of long ago.
