Misterbluesky Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 They took over the old Deerhead Inn after the ghetto hood ran them out of the city line/pine hill district. Yellow Pike is so tough to get here..for unknown reasons. They served it well. Sadly..they are closing the doors on Sunday..forever.I Get over to Clinton this weekend..even it's only for a beer and a shot of soul whiskey. 1
BringBackFergy Posted June 27, 2019 Posted June 27, 2019 Loved Scharfs. Sauerbraten, liver dumpling soup, potato salad, great food. My Dad loves it (RIP). Been there at Schiller Park and WS many many times.
ExiledInIllinois Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 (edited) My Bro tells Us we should go. Right down Clinton. I love German food, same with Son... But no bueno for the ladies, wife and daughter. What do they have against Germans! /smh LoL FWIW... @Misterbluesky do you remember (of course you do) when The Deerhead Inn was right next to 14 Holy Helpers? On Union & Indian Church directly across from Race Street. Another throwback... Remember The Hobnail on Union @ the 400. Mooney's now after numerous changes. But I guess (according to my father)... The building was on other side of Union, they moved it when building The 400. Edited June 28, 2019 by ExiledInIllinois

Same here! We were probably dining right next to each and didn't know it! ?14 Holy Helpers was our Parish. It's now the In-laws since they moved to S.Cheek to from Lackawanna/O.Park. Used to be Our Lady of the Sacred Heart on Abbott, in O.Park (where we were married). Inlaws go to fish fry was the Cloverbank. Now they go to Town Shanty on Clinton & Harlem. My father grew up there off Cayuga Creek Road (off William)... Used to play, run in that area by Sharf's worked the farms (Old French/Clinton) there as a child. The Freezer Queen mansion (think that mansion was Freezer Queen?), would play there as a young child. Edited June 28, 2019 by ExiledInIllinois

Make freezers or just cold storage?

ExiledInIllinois Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 Just looked it up, Paul Synder (BFLo Braves owner) founded Freezer Queen. Frozen dinners the main product.
