Default Old Wolfeboro Restaurants

A place called The Pirates Den used to be located at the end of Lake Street where they used to play Dixieland music. That building is now condos.

Also, Garwoods, which is in business today, was previously known as The (new) Pirates Den and Aw Shucks. And...I think it had one or two prior names that I can't think of.

Then, of course, there's The Dockside Grill & Dairy Bar, previously known as PJ's and most prominently Bailey's Dockside.

It was also known as Rumors.

Mast landing across the street was White's restaurant. Great place for breakfast and lunch. Went to Brewster for one year (no college wanted me ) and it was a Saturday Morning ritual to walk downtown for a cup of coffee and an English Muffin. Mrs. Edwards worked there and her son went to Brewster then (still public high school for Wolfeboro at that time) and she always had a cheerful good morning to the "boys".

I remember Spider well,Dickie B . We used to order a western sandwich just to see him work.He'd chop the ham,onion and peppers in a flash,open the bread drawer with his foot and KICK the bottom of the drawer causing the loaf of bread to fly up and he caught it in mid air.While all this was happening,he'd spin around and light a butt for anyone at the counter.
Just for your info....Spider is an expert clock repairman.He has that shop on Union Ave in Lakeport with all the giant clock gears on the lawn.I brought him an antique clock and he did a great job for light money.

Wow, that goes back a way! I couldn't remember the name of it but had many good lunches there! We kept our cabin cruiser at the yacht club there, spent many a night falling asleep to the sound of the Dixieland bands....... some of the condos there are now part of the Windrifter time share units. Ahhhhh, the memories!
