The one before you get to Boonville road on the right side of the road. Not Black Forest Inn.

I don't think this is correct. The Captain's Table was near Villa Maria and Texas; it's an S&L now. And it seems like Beef and Brew was where the Tap is now.

Jose's was there by 1978went there before Ring Dance.
Somebody has to lose. Might as well be t.u.

The building was initially a restaurant that was owned by a man with the last name Patton. It was there in the late sixties -early 70s. He owned the rent house that was next to it and lived in a house on the road behind the restaurant.

Beef and Brew moved into there after that and then moved to the building in the Woodstone shopping center. Then Jose's opened up in the building and was there until it burned down.

The Building where the Tap is was originally C&S Transit Company. They moved the railroad depot from Waller to the site to make it a restaurant. It was like that for a year or two and then Beef and Brew moved in. Then it became bars like Lipstick and Confetti.

From June 1974 Eagle article....

The Captains Table Restuarant, 2900 Texas Ave., Bryan has been serving the Bryan- College Station area since April 1973. Previously it was known as Clayton's Restaurant.

From Jose Montemayor's Obit in the Eagle 4/2/16

"Montemayor came to Bryan-College Station in 1971 and bought Zarape, where he used his mother's recipes. In 1978, he opened Jose's Restaurant on Texas 30. After a fire destroyed that location in 1993, he moved the restaurant to its current location."

Good catch- Crown and Anchor shows up around 1974 in the papers and is listed on Hwy 30. If you didn't like your meal, they paid you cash for your trip back to town.

Crown and Anchor...that's it. I had a 489 problems class at A&M in 1974 and there was four of us in the class and we met once a week in a back room and ate supper with the Prof while we discussed current issues in the industry. Great class that taught us to think critically. The Prof paid for the meal every week. Great class!
