Licari's Bar & Grill
About us
Licari's opened in the early 1940's in the Greenbush in the West Washington Ave area. Originally, Licari's was a tire dealership. After WWII, Licari's Tires couldn't source tires so they opened a bar and "Licari's Spot" was born.
In 1961, Jerry Licari moved Licari's to Emil Street due to redevelopment of the area. In 1981, Larry Schmidt bought his favorite bar from Jerry and it has been family owned ever since!
