Kaisers

DSC_0016

Kaiser's was THE BOMB when I was a kid.

It was Oklahoma's first ice cream parlor, opening in 1910. It moved to this location in 1918, and was open as Kaiser's until 1990. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

It was refurbished in 1996 and reopened as "The Greatful Bean Cafe" or, alternately, "Kaiser's Greatful Bean Cafe". The new owner's website is here: http://www.greatfulbean.com

I haven't been to the new place yet, but I'm planning on going soon.

«Louis» remembers Kaiser's! (Too bad the new owners didn't leave the name alone...)

[«Louis'» "RC Factor" (Resistance to Change) runs high when it comes to changing landmarks like Kaisers...]
