Paper Moon Cafe, 3527 Farrow Road: Circa 2015 2 comments

Posted at 10:22 pm in closing

This place does not have a lot of google reviews, so it's hard to say when it closed, but judging by Google Streetview, probably around 2015. The building itself seemes to have been razed around 2020, and the lot is now empty, so it's too late to get your salmon fix.

These pictures come from April 2010.

This place was the Farrow Road Drive In for many years.

I have fond memories of this place from the early 80s. Was a Drive In place in the same vein as the legendary Edna's. M dad used to get a giant burger, and eat it while steering the Buick with his pinky.
