The center building was built as a gasoline service station, for a long time it was a Jeep dealership and lastly housed a quick-lube. Most recent memories are of it being a forlorn, neglected and highly visible eye-sore at the gateway to this river community.
The design maintains the Miesian glass box design of the gas station with lean-to additions, one containing restrooms and the other the meat smoker. The rear garage bay houses the kitchen and the other outfitted for the indoor dining and bar area. A new glazed overhead door opens out onto the covered patio and packed gravel outdoor dining space. The underside of the original metal roof deck is exposed with new the new ductwork and piping. Everything above the steel frame is painted black to recede. The countertops are locally crafted wood. And the ribs and brisket are outstanding.
