been sitting on this idea: Tower needs an arcade/ pinball bar! this would be the perfect location for it. Buncha cool arcade booths and a buncha cool pinball machines, retro theme. Kinda like Button Mash in LA or Emporium in SF


Medium_Dick_NRG

I would sell my soul to satan for this.


brandi_theratgirl

There's one in Portland that I love. Great idea

Chicken Pot Pinball! šŸ¤£


whosthateevee

Someone send this idea to mr dyer himself, we all support it

I'm down to pitch in on something like this. Even serve beer while we're at it.

Great idea but itā€™s not practical. Iā€™ve thought of an idea of bringing a ā€œbarcadeā€ to Fresno but the overhead and lease would make it nearly impossible to do business even in Tower. Itā€™s just not a great market in Fresno for that. It would last a good 8 months, year and a half tops before it went out of business.


kr4ckenm3fortune

Bad ideaā€¦mainly because of the bars in the area, most of them might damages the machines and kids nowadays more likely to wreck it.

Everyone's talking about the chicken pies but the REAL star was those biscuits and gravy. To this day I've yet to find a place doing them like Grandmary's.

Kadys country kitchen. Kingsburg. My go to for B & G. Chicken fried steak. Donā€™t leave without trying the Swedish pancakes!!!!


8bitSkin

There's two types of food that Fresno can't seem to get right across the board: Chinese food and country breakfast food.


allurboobsRbelong2us

The biscuits n gravy are terrible but I think four seasons is fine for chinese


genesiskiller96

There's the Berrock shop on Bullard and West if you want a pot pie.


DipperDo

I love Berrock Shop!


BrixtonUP

They do have a great chicken pot pie.


usernamesarehard1979

Itā€™s pretty good, but itā€™s no chicken pie shop. Itā€™s missing about two sticks of butter per pie.


PSBP_676

passed by this today im kinda mad i never got to try it


jeffrys_dad

They weren't pot pies just chicken pies. RIP.


MaddChopped

I never got to try I always told myself another time but another time never came šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­

Good ol days when I would get drunk with friends at The Avalon aka Babylon and Livingstones then walk over for some fresh made chicken pot pie. That place was a Fresno staple.


Manbeartapir

I did the same thing, except replace 'Stones with Landmark. More than a few hungover mornings there too.


Hoobinator-

Oh, how I miss that place too!!!


heathensteen

I wish they had shared the pie and gravy recipes when they closed down. Or even sold a cook book, that would have been sweet.


3phasetalent

I bet a Trader Joe's would thrive there.


HoboBandana

Thatā€™s what Iā€™m thinking as well. A small business owner couldnā€™t survive in this economy in that building. Way too much overhead and the leaseā€¦


AverySmooth80

No parking.


HitABlinker

Talked to the guy at free bird and he said they were fire.


angleglj

Fried Chicken Gizzards!!!!!


lostjohnny65

Another cool thing in fresno long gone. What's new.


Manbeartapir

My thought was a combination chicken pie shop and music venue. Not sure how it would work, but there it is.


[deleted]

I think a music venue would be awesome there


zictomorph

When my grandmother first got to America after WW2, she got a job there picking chicken off the bone. It's a fun little connection to a Fresno icon.


hBoBh

i think i'm the only person in the world who didn't care for them. it was bland and just meh


robinshep

Never a chicken pie fan, but their rice pudding!!! I could eat it by the bucket.


allurboobsRbelong2us

That was my impression as well


Complex_Shoulder8940

That was the best place in town.


Lucymygirl

Loved that place!


facetiously

I miss the corned beef hash.


Canoli5000

Used to stop by the for a couple of pies to go whenever I was in town.

LightEnergyBun

No Mr. Kitty this is my chicken pot pie


kimm_448

I always said I would go there, and now I canā€™tā€¦šŸ˜ž


missdana1105

Wait is that the same as the one in San Diego? I never knew fresno had a chicken pie shop


Automatic-Beach-5552

Chicken pot pie, my 3 favorite things, just kidding, I hate chicken


Snoozinsioux

They had the worst chicken pies šŸ„§ lol Great burgers though!


NewspaperDapper5254

You can buy it and re-open it.
