Historic Connections

Percy's Café Americana is the latest evolution of a family tradition in this location that has lasted 32 years.

Percy Howell, successful restaurateur since 1945, and father of owner Pat Kroetch, opened the "Golden Hour" here in 1968.

In 1984, after several years of "legendary" success as the "Golden Hour", Percy's daughter Pat and husband Greg bought the restaurant from Pat's father and christened it "Percy's" in his honor.

Pat and Greg continue the tradition and in January of 1999, another new beginning took place with the opening of Percy's Café Americana! ~ a testament to family entrepreneurial spirit!
