Hey Captain, that wasn't a movie theater that was the Concorde roller skating rink. The Merben movie theater was down a little further between Englewood and Wellington if I remember correct... There was also a music store called Howard Herbert's and a guy named Jay Bruno taught me how to play the drums there.

That Flynn O'Hara Uniform Store used to be a Blockbuster Video. The third store front in from the corner was the two story McDonald's.

Mayfair used to be such a great place to live. Until the politicians made it a section 8. Wasteland. 😢.

The guys who use to own pizza city on Frankford ave John and Ron about a year ago sold the place and the pizza and quality of the food went downhill and just isn't as good as it used to be. I do like the fact that now take credit card and they still kept the hot ovens on the back of the delivery pickup truck.

Grew up in Mayfair. Can you visit Haegele’s bakery and eat a sticky bun for me? 22:28 I live in Mass and miss German bakeries. I just miss Haegele’s so much..
@justing95286 ай бұрын
I grew up and currently live in Mayfair. I go there once a week. Their donuts and sticky buns are still good as always so are their birthday cakes. Also there is an Italian bakery near fanshaw st. and Frankford next to dunking donuts. They make the best Italian bread, pizza, stromboli and canolies. I go there every Sunday to the Italian bakery after church.
