Anyone old enough to remember a nightclub downtown fresno 1940's era? Had to take an elevator to the upper floor in the building to access the fine dinning and bar and dancing. Joe Cannon was the owner.

There was a nightclub in downtown Fresno, and I believe that the address was 1903 P Street. A beautiful brick building that has "Old Fresno Warehouse Row" painted on it now. Anyone remember the name?

MSG?

I worked in that kitchen when Johnson the owner re-made it into Fresno Feed and Fuel... 1977(?), no MSG, just amazing three course meals for about $13 and change not including drinks or the favorite appetizer, "Turkey Nuts"... As a waiter we loved it when you sent them back uneaten, we scarfed them with melted butter. The Bar was another world.

The building that was home to Fresno Feed & Fuel, Porky's and Woody's is soon to be demolished. https://www.fresnobee.com/living/food-d ... 01562.html
Originally built for and opened as "Gandolfs" for fine dining, although as I recall, there was a little too much MSG used to season the food! The major tenant of the new center was the Foodland Market branch (of the original Foodland market store which was an original first tenant of the then new Fig Garden Village in 1955. The Foodland at First and Barstow was famous for having the butchers who used to work at Continental Market at the corner of Holland and Blackstone after it closed. Continental was known for having the best butchers in town and was a two-store "chain," the other store being in the Bay Area.

What was the place at Belmont and Chestnut? Was demolished in the 90s.
The Friendly Spot was on the south side of Belmont just west of Chestnut

Does anyone remember the Country Western bar on Ventura & Sixth? It was near Blanco’s Bakery and Lightning Records. There was a wagon wheel as a marquee. What was the name of the bar?
I think that was The Pioneer Club

I will just throw some names out there: Frontier Club, Jim's Place, The Skyline Club, DJ's and Inkahoots in Clovis. The Refectory, Velvet Turtle/Scoreboard, Inkahoots2, The Stardust, Wilikers, Sari's Red Carpet, The Keyboard Lounge, numerous Ewell's that are gone (know a few are left), The Pub, Tarpey Tavern, Club Casino, The Palace, Knock Three Times, The Copper Pot, Porky's/Woody's/Fresno Feed and Fuel, The DeMarquis, Fran's Covered Wagon are just a few that I remember being in or hearing about. And the we had the topless HipHugger, another strip club, I think on Belmont near the circle and one that was way north on Golden State Blvd..
Does anyone know where ‘The Pub’ was located? I’m trying to remember the name of the bar across from the old Wangs Panda on Maroa. It may have been The Pub.
