Looks like the one in Traverse City closed recently. Is the one on Jos. Campau still open? Used to be two in St. Clair Shores, one on Mack, one on Harper. | ||

The Hamtramck Clock is a grease-pit now, sadly. It was so much better when Buffalino owned it and Kenny managed it. The Clock on Harper in SCS became Monty's Cafe, an institution for eastside high schoolers. Sadly, the building fell a few years for a National Coney Island. | ||

Actually, Ham_steve, The Clock on Harper was not the Nat'l Coney. There's a new medical building (unleased) in it's place. The Coney is at old 8 mile, and I believe it was another restaurant, I can't recall the name. | ||

Dan_the_man, You are correct sir! It was called The Round Table. My dad used to hang there with his buds. I think there had been a fire there and the owner decided not to open back up | ||

Used to eat at the Clock on Gratiot south of 6 Mile which is now a (shocker) coney island. Also was one south of 9 Mile on Gratiot and Van Dyke between 9 & 10 Mile. BTW, anybody remember Harvest Table restaraunts? Used to be one on Van Dyke South if 8 Mile, Van Dyke at 15 Mile, and one on Van Dyke around 26 Mile. | ||

The Harvest Table was south of Outer Dr at Rolyat (Taylor backwards). Went downhill after the biker shootout in the parking lot. (Next to Knapp Photography Studio, that big old house.) There was also a clock on 8 Mile, a few blocks east of Gratiot. Spent lots of early mornings(read as bar closings) in that one and the one at Gratiot and Six. | ||

Great memory of the eastside Horn! I forgot the Clock on 8 Mile, noe it recently became 8 Mile Pancake House. Haven't tried it yet, but its always busy in the morning. Don't remember the biker shootout at Harvest Table, what year was it? I used to eat lunch at the restaraunt around 1995, I belive at that time it was called Gil Car Grill or something like that. | ||

I think the biker shootout was in the mid to late 1970s, memory kind of hazy about then. Right after it, they put up a large sign saying "NO COLORS". I grew up on the next street over, Lantz, just down the block, by the church. | ||

The one on Warren in Dearborn became a Palace, not sure what it is now. Another one in Dearborn was on Michigan just west of City Hall, it is now a Thai Palace II, Loved those little juke boxes in each booth. | ||

I think there was one in Plymouth way back when, on Ann Arbor Trail or Plymouth Road, whatever it's called there. Never been to any of 'em but I remember it. | ||

The Clock and Biff's--I remember eating at both. I like Georgio's counterside Gourmet in Oak Park these days--it's still the Biff's interior |
