Bakey's restaurant


Interesting sign for a Restaurant/Bar on Water Street. I don't understand why they have a guy sleeping on an ironing board for a restaurant & bar, but I found it one of the most interesting signs I've ever seen.

:) That is pretty strange. With the beer stein nearby it looks almost an anti alcohol advertisement - which makes little sense for a restaurant. No? The photo is great, nice clear shot.

I read somewhere that Bakey Sr once fell asleep on his wife's ironing board after having a few beers. Did you hear any snoring sounds coming from the speakers?

Great looking sign! Certainly would catch your attention when walking past. Great photo.

What a hoot - i agree that is the strangest sign for a restaurant I have ever seen - maybe they have a lot of tablecloths and napkins to iron!!!!

I would eat there because of that sign!
