My favorite Parkmoor was on N. Main Street in front of Forest Park Plaza. It was the closest to those of us who attended Northmont High School during the 1960s.

There was a spur line railroad which ran adjacent to the Parkmoor on Shroyer Road. The train crew usually stopped there for lunch. This became a regular thing, and the car hops would go out to the engine to take the order and later come back with the food. At one time Parkmoor advertised that is was the only drive in restaurant in the nation with train service!

My favorite Parkmoor was on N. Main Street across from the Frisches Big Boy. It was torn down and became the Ponderosa Steak House - Gerry Office a neighbor of my family on Wales Drive started it.

Update: Parkmoor chicken at Frickers
The Huber Heights restaurant's volume of Parkmoor chicken was so large that they moved it to Mondays and serve it all day. It is the classic Parkmoor chicken dinner (four pieces of chicken, crinkle fries and cole slaw). Did I mention that it is ALL DAY MONDAYS? Git-R-Done!!

How I miss the Parkmoor on Shroyer Road. Seems like all your nights out with the girls or on dates ended there. I can still taste their wonderful Jumbo Double Burgers.

Many moons ago there was a Parkmoor on Shroyer Rd. Could walk down the road about a mile to get there or do the cruise thru to see who all was hanging out there. Still had the little jukes on the tables and on date night would stop for something to eat. Its now a mexican place called Carmels and does do a good business and good food. Same little dairy queen is across the street and a neighborhood bar.

Luv My Dayton
The Dairy Queen accross the street certainly takes in the summer business. I am missing so much in Dayton. Marions Pizza, Donato's Pizza, Dorothy Lane Market, Oakwood Club and numerous other things. Dayton was a wonderful town to grow up in.

The one at Salem Ave.
My mother worked there and so did I. I was 14 or 15 and that would have been in '1965/66.
I was dishwasher and chicken preparer, breading and then more breading.
But it was really good chicken.

in the 60s I lived in East Kettering and went alot to the Parkmoor on Woodman-just south of Woodlane shopping center. Also went to the Parkmoor on Smithville now and then. the one on Woodman was torn down and replaced by a bank, but has been vacant for ages now.
I sure do miss Duffs smorgasbord- there were about 5 of them in the Dayton area, now there is only one left in the world, and it's in Pigeon Forge, TN. They had the BEST bread pudding!!!!

Luv My Dayton...I graduated from Julienne High School in 1958. Wow! Makes me old. Went to St Albert the Great grade school. What wonderful times to grow up. Wish I could go back in time for a while. Moved to the south 5 years ago and it will never feel like home. Many friends and things I still miss in Dayton.

I believe there was a Parkmoor on the corner of Stroop Rd. and Dixie Drive just a stone's throw from the Frigidaite Plant in the early '60s.

The Parkmore on West Third St. was in the Arcade.
Larry Flint opened the Hustler bar on East Third St. across from Wympees, at East Third and Wayne Ave.
Wympee's is still there.

Any body remember the Dayton policeman named Masconi that would keep things somewhat normal at Parkmoor on shroyer and sgt.Oseit from oakwood p.d.that would nail us for squeeling tires across the tracks?Every day started and endded at that place.It had to have been a lucrative business back in the day.

I think the parkmoor on woodman was still around in the late eighties or early ninties.I seem to remember going to a cruise in there before it moved across the street to Rikes.

North Main at Forest Park. Spent many an evening there with my friends from '63 to '65, and cruising in my maroon '60 Pontiac Catalina with nearly 400 hp and LOUD pipes. Lots of fun. Also would cruise to the one on Shroyer when we had more $ for gas. Lived in Dayton View, so that as a hike!
