This former restaurant has been vacant for at least eleven years, closing after the formerly busy road it sits beside was bypassed in favor of more direct routes to our questionably enjoyable beaches. Despite this long abandonment, and despite some minor vandalism that caused it to be (relatively) well sealed, the interior and furnishings are in nearly perfect condition, waiting for the right buyer to make their way down the forgotten highway.

I cut my knee rather badly on some broken glass while entering and was slowly bleeding through my jeans the entire time. Hence, my visit was rushed and my photos generally mediocre, but they still give a good view of how fresh this little place is.

That's an interesting open sign and placement. Hopefully somebody will buy this place and restore it to something cool. This place has a lot of possibilities. Thanks for sharing! Hope the knee is okay.

Hard to believe it has been empty for 11yrs. It is incredibly clean! Hope you didn't need stitches...




Give abandonment a reason for its sacrificial reclamation to nature. Love it. Remember it. Take a picture. Share it. Leave the decay to nature.

Nice set especially considering you were bleeding out
Hope you got all the glass out... I hate glass cuts.




Just when I thought I was out... they pulled me back in.

Way to finish up an explore while bleeding! I know it sucks. I cut my hand bad once hopping a fence, and was bleeding on all my gear. Wasn't at all pleasant. Definitely makes taking photos a pain.

But! These turned out great, especially for a seemingly uninspired type place you managed some good shots.




RIP Blackhawk

That place looks cleaner than a lot of restaurants I've been to. Good pics too. I hate getting my gear bloody.

It really looks like they just closed up one night and then never opened up the next morning

Really nice!!!

There are a few restaurants near me that are in a similar shape with everything left behind. Unfortunately they are sealed well and alarmed. Well looked after by the real estate companies.
