There’s still some 30th Anniversary cake at Andy’s Family Restaurant as I write this story at about 10 AM.

Angie Angelos holds up the cake decorated to celebrate her restaurant's 30th Anniversary.

My Emmaus Reunion Group meets there Saturday morning’s at 7:30 and Angie Angelos, the founder’s daughter who runs the place, had been reminding us for weeks that there would be free cake today.

It was good, firm white cake from Sam’s.

Turns out there was free coffee, too.

Andy's was decorated with balloons and other "30" things.

I never acquired a taste for that beverage, but I did get to consume many glasses of water…which was also free.

Andy's Family Restaurant

The Crystal Lake restaurant on Route 14 next to the intersection of Dole Avenue was crowded this morning.

There was a line to pay for breakfast.

There was a traffic jam at the check-out counter.

Angie was reminded customers that Thursday she would be serving “Andy’s famous corn beef and cabbage.”

The meat is especially good at Andy’s.  The side order of ham is about $2.50 and wonderful.  I sometimes order instead of oatmeal.

Parking is behind the establishment and in a newly-landscaped and lit lot across Dole Avenue.
