Eat at Joe's


Kurt Spence, a volunteer researcher with the Doylestown Historical Society, writes:

“I am doing a house history for the Rudolph building, 33 S. Main St., the corner of S. Main St. and E. Oakland Ave. I have discovered that after Fickes Dairy Bar (29 S. Main, now Stephanie’s) went out of business, a retired policeman from Lansdale named Joseph opened a luncheonette and pizza place. Before long, he moved around the corner to 17 E. Oakland Ave. In 1976, Jon Rudolph demolished the restaurant to add a two-story addition to his Appalachian Trail Outfitters store.

“Would anyone out there know anything about either restaurant, or have any more information on Joe?”
