Our Danbury location, built in 1928, was rumored to have been a speakeasy during prohibition. It has been a popular Danbury eatery and social gathering place for 70 years.

Originally built as a car dealership, this location has been home to some of the Hat City's most legendary and innovative restaurants since 1933. Following the repeal of the 18th Amendment, the first liquor license in Danbury was granted to "Bennie Pane's Stone Grill (1933-1937)." Later, "Pane's Restaurant (1937-48)" was the first town to offer a pizza as a meal of choice. "Negril's Grill (1948-59)" and the "6&7 Restaurant (1959-78)" followed. "The Bushwacker (1978-89)" was the first sports bar in Danbury. After "A.W. Schucks (1989-90)," TK's American Cafe opened here in 1990 and was the first in the area to feature Buffalo Wings as it's signature menu item.

In 1991, TK's was a struggling new business contemplating shutting it's doors when we were the first to try a 10 cent wing night. With only a paper window sign to advertise, Tuesday Wing Nights became so popular that within month there was a line to get in. The original sign credited with saving the bar is now framed and hanging in the bar room. We now serve 30,000 wings a week.

The staff and I here at TK's would like to thank you for your patronage and help in keeping intact the tradition of this building being a friendly, comfortable gathering place to enjoy food and good company.
