Can anyone tell me the address of this bar? I think it was on or near Austin, close to oak park in the 1950's

5714 W. Madison... was it good food? Building is gone now. Found this in the Chicago Trib archives. Looks like they moved to a Hyatt up North in 1961.

Looks like it moved to the Purple Hotel in Lincolnwood. http://achicagosojourn.blogspot.com/2011/10/purple-hotel-on-wane.html

Join the Austin West Side Archive on Facebook. She responded to a question and posted a matchbook cover for Ray Foley's Restaurant on West Madison. She says more images coming.
