Bonanza in the Vine Brook Plaza, Burlington. It was a cafeteria-style place that had good meatloaf, as I remember. You entered and walked behind a wall until you go to the food.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Red Coach Grill in Burlington, where Border Cafe is now -- or maybe right across the street. It was basically a train car made into a restaurant.
Does anyone have knowledge of the Gray Squirrel Pub, where the car wash on Cambridge St Burlington is now located?
Hi Robert -- Thanks for the great mentions. I remember the Bonanza in Burlington. Great steaks, there, sort of like the Ponderosa chain. I don't remember the Red Coach Grill in Burlington, but do recall Victoria Station around that location.
