The few times I went there, it was like walking into some "family" supper club in northern Wisconsin (Spanky’s comes to mind) that was basically a bull-pen with a sports bar, a scattering of tables, a few video games for the kids, and a pathetic little island that pretended to be a salad bar. OK, Granny’s isn’t quite that bad, since they put the sports bar in a separate section, but I still was never favorably impressed. In any case, I’ve heard that they changed owners and went even further downhill like so many other places in town.
One of my friends used to rave about the place, because of the cheap-n-plenty chicken wings. Years ago I tried their Scandinavian salted ribs. Meh. They’re no longer on the web menu.
Granny’s Closet has its own fascinating history, however. This is way before I moved to Flagstaff, but Granny’s was originally the Paul Bunyan Cafe, and they were the birthplace of the original Muffler Man (a familiar icon to followers of Zippy the Pinhead)!
