Bartley's unique sense of humor and personal touch are not limited to the menu.
Even the restaurant's eclectic decor reflects his irreverent personality.

Brightly colored bumper stickers decorate the narrow entryway. One of the favorites with the customers, he says, is the sticker that reads "Grow your own dope: plant a man."
He calls the back corner of the restaurant--filled with momentos he has been collecting for at least 15 years--his "Elvis corner."
A sign saying "I love Elvis" adorns the frappe menu.
Much of the decor--like the poster advertising a 1966 Jim Morrison and The Doors concert--has been a part of the restaurant for years.
"It's cozy here," Bartley says. "Customers say it's sort of like home."
