The charm of this establishment is evident, with its traditional exterior exuding warmth and character. As we delve into the scene, our eyes are drawn to the array of cars lining Clive Street. Classic automobiles from the era fill every available space, showcasing the diverse range of vehicles that once graced these streets. It's fascinating to observe how transportation has evolved over time. Intriguingly, it's not just about cars and transport; it's also about community and leisure.
