New Braunfels Texas building still standing



Nickerson Farms of New Braunfels Texas.  Building is still standing, but the antique business is closed so I did not get to look around.

    I recently visited a couple of old Nickerson Farms locations in Ohio and Michigan that are still operating as restaurants for my blog devoted to obscure restaurant and retail chains. I'd be honored if you gave my blog entry on the subject a read. You can find it here:

    Excuse me, I found out about these restaurants 3 years ago and they intrigued me to the point of mild obsession. I think I found the closest pictures to operating one on a listing. Check it out

Picacho Peak, Still Standing

Image
The best remaining example of an original Nickersons. This one is located halfway between Tuscon and Phoenix and represents two which existed in Arizona. There were two more planned, but they were never completed. Next week some menu scans. If you ever waited a table at NF this is a familiar view. Looking from the wait station into the kitchen.

Milk machine on left with exit door just ahead. Someone took the paneling off the wall (don't know why) so you can see the insulation.
