This very large building is home to a popular eatery. it ha a neat, step gable in the front with lots outdoor seating. Wraps well around the block. Mid 20th century.

For a more detailed and informed physical description of this site, I have added information from the original nomination form sent to me by John P. Byrne, National Register Database Manager (John_Byrne@nps.gov), Department of the Interior. This narrative was created March 16, 1979, mailed in to Washington, D.C. and evaluated April 18, 1980 and finally approved on July 21, 1982. Thanks to this designation and the efforts of the community to stop developers in the early 70s, Haddonfield is permanently protected and is one of the best example of an intact Colonial America.

Corner of Kings Highway and Tanner Street. Restaurant. 1-story, flat roof, recently somewhat colonial style remodeling of facade with pent roof across entire front. Divided bulk windows very plain detail. All masonry. --- National Register of Historic Places Inventory -- Haddonfield Historic District Nomination Form
