01 / The story of this place
Make time for these
The building was Digby's general store around 1898 and became a saloon in 1902; Nancy McNiven-Glenn bought it in 1987 and gave it its name. Blues and rock bands play the small corner stage on some weekends, and there's a beer garden out back. Local lore says Jimmy Hoffa used its phone booth to dodge his bugged office line.
