Kathy hopes customers have that same reaction now that she and her husband, Len, own this restaurant at 2835 Mount Vernon Rd. The Skvors bought the restaurant in early May from Barb and Gary Lucky. Sweet sold it to the Luckys in 1990. Little has changed since the restaurant opened 17 years ago. It will remind customers, as it first did Kathy, of a cozy, English pub.
Dark wood is everywhere, from the walls to the tables and high-back booths.
The windows provide much of the lighting. Customers place orders at the counter, pay and are then free to find a seat. Kathy says customers are welcome to watch their meals being prepared as well. Food is delivered to the tables quickly. Tables also are quickly cleared and cleaned.
