1237 South Broad Street, Franklin Park.
The corner of Dayton & South Broad.
Once upon a time The Dayton House Tavern.
A site passed by for decades by me from
the days of going to Junior 4 to the days of
working on South Broad Street a block away:)

Remember it well, from walking to Franklin school from Virginia Ave. as a kid.

My husband and I used to meet neighborhood friends there for a drink before we went to dinner. The place was a cast of characters-Frank Kovach was the owner, a very educated man that could talk to you on any subject...Wink-"Joe the Whip, Part II, the Sequel"...the Nangle Brothers, one crazier than the other...Joe Metrosky (rest his soul) offering you a "coke", which was actually Don Q 151 rum... shuffle board ...Sunday afternoon Pool. It was a great neighborhood place to go "where everybody knew your name".
