Jules Tavern, 267 Cummings Avenue, The Burg. This was
at the corner of Cummings Avenue and Anderson Street.
A Burg site must have this:)
A Blog about the Chambersburg area of Trenton NJ. The Burg we all loved and miss. If you were from the Burg I hope many of the pictures and lists and comments under them from good folks bring back some nice memories. Villa Park, Franklin Park, South Trenton, and nearby Hamilton also mentioned. Use the search box atop the blog to find schools,churches,streets,stores,bars etc that you remember. Over 4000 posts and 3000 pics. Enjoy:)

Mike,
If you mentioned Jules Tavern, you gotta mention "Count" Felix's on Anderson. Ask dad.
My friends and I used to spend every Thursday night here in the late '80's/early '90's. We drank draft beers for 25 cents a glass and drank the occasional shot of Wilson's "That's All!" Whiskey for 50 cents. Large pizza with everything on it? $5. Bowling game? A quarter. Karen the barmaid was really nice and pretty easy on the eyes. But best of all was Vic, the owner, who would emerge from his kitchen, a snubnose .38 in one pocket and a half-pint of Peppermint Schnapps in the other. Every once in awhile, he'd have to come out, look the joint over, and if any unwanted rowdiness was observed, he'd issue his binding edict--never contradicted: "Get the fuck out!"
Okey?
Those were good times.
