#2550 - Town Pub and Deli, Shelton, WA - 5/31/2014

Town Pub & Deli, Shelton, WA
(Former location of Town Tavern in orange on left)

The Town Tavern (now Pub & Deli) has been in Shelton for quite a while, although not always at this location. I can't vouch for going back to the 30s, as one person at the bar told me, but I have found listings for it around the corner at 118 South 2nd St from the 50s through the 70s, and I've found a bar owned by Tony Fonzo listed at location in 1936.

It's now in the building at 130 West Cota, which was the longtime home of the Pastime Tavern, and briefly the "Do Cum Inn" (not to be confused with the Dew Drop Inn which the old location became in the 90s). Since 1993 it has been owned by an incorporated group named "Ladies Unanimous" and seems to be mostly older ladies serving bikers.
