Dolly's Tavern ST RT 44 and Lake Rockwell Rd Ravenna,Ohio
PIN placed

A bar with a bizarre history. In 1959 this was the Township Tavern. In the 1980s it was Pfeiffers and was a biker bar. The owner had a full back tattoo of motorcycles racing across the plains with wild horses alongside. His request when he died was for his back skin to be tanned to preserve it . His widow hung it in the bar for 5 or 6 years until the board of health had it removed. Pfeiffers closed in the early 2000s and by 2019 this was Giulitti's Farm Market.
