Cafe Opposite Hillsborough Park

[Neckarski_94]

Does anyone remember a Cafe opposite Hillsborough Park? My Grandad once owned one. He was Polish. His Name was Stanislaw Neckarski. Im not quite sure when he owned it. I'm guessing sometime during the early 1950s He then sold it when he got married to my Grandma. Then he sadly died in 1964.

The cafe that I remember across from Hillsborough Park was called "The Palms" which was then owned and run by Bronco Layne and called "Bronco's" is that the one you are thinking about. This would have been in the 1950's and 1960's.
