The East side (bar side) began as a mercantile around 1908 called the California Store. 

In 1924 the Papas brothers bought the building and opened the legendary The Club Pool Hall later shortened to The Club. Outside Two-Bit Street Café you’ll still see The Club’s sign hanging. 

Two-Bit Street Café is located on Historic 25 ^th street in Ogden, Utah. We love having our restaurant here and try to respect and preserve the stories of this street and our building. 

The West side of Two-Bit Street was built in 1897. Over the years it has been many different businesses, including a barbershop, shooting gallery, and the Paradise Coffee House.

OUR STORY

1930'S DECO BAR

Our back office is known as The Capone Room. 

During the height of his power and influence notorious gangster, Al Capone had considerable holdings in Ogden, he was personal friends with the Pappas Brothers.  This room was made for one reason, and that was to play cards.  and would hold poker games in the back room of our building.  

The "CLUB" was famous for hosting the largest high-stakes poker games west, right up to 1963, which is when the last brothal was shut down on Two-Bit Street.

THE CAPONE ROOM

Above the archway you can see a clock with a bullet hole. 

The clock was first shot in the 1930’ by Kenny Denver a Native American when The Club refused to cash his check. And some one told Kenny that just because you have a gun strapped to you waist dosent mean you know how to use it. Kenny made a bet that he could shoot the second hand on the clock.  With a quick draw of his pistol, Kenny won the bet.  It was shot again in the 1970’s by Denis Layton a drunken patron who claimed he could hit the bullet hole. He missed, and his 22 bullet is still embedded in the clock.

Two-Bit Street Café opened it’s doors in 2003. 

Owned by James Dayley and Penny Allred-Dayley, Penny is still the head chef…. 

MAGIC EVERYWHERE

December 11,2023  

It is with a mix of emotions that we share some significant news with you. Over the past two decades, we have had the honor of serving our community, sharing countless meals, and creating lasting memories. YOU, OUR PATRONS, have helped us create a vibrant and welcoming space for our community. 

Unfortunately, we now find ourselves facing a difficult situation. Despite being in full compliance with our lease and making our best efforts, our lease now has been terminated by our landlords.  Regrettably, we are being forced to close the doors. Business is challenging, more so in recent years. The pandemic, rising costs and labor shortages have been tough enough to deal with but we survived.    However, we cannot continue where we are constantly presented with unjustified operating expenses and strong-arm tactics.

We are not saying goodbye forever. In our commitment to preserving the essence of Two-Bit Street Cafe, we are actively exploring relocation options.   While this current chapter is closing, we look forward to welcoming you back soon, rejuvenated, and ready to continue the tradition of Two-Bit Street Café.  

Our 20-year journey has been remarkable, thanks to your unwavering support and loyalty. Your loyalty has been the heartbeat of our café and we are immensely grateful.  As we embark on a new adventure, we anticipate the day when we can once again serve you in a fresh and exciting new setting. We are fortunate to have Andrew and Kate help us carry the Two-Bit torch along with us. The Two-Bit team: Penny and James, Andrew, Kate, and crew bid you farewell.
