Findlay |

W. Main Cross Street |
|
Set
up at what was once Findlay's primary I-75 interchange,
Hospitality Motor Inns built their Dutch Pantry across
from Howard Johnson's failed HoJo's
Junction. The unit was eventually converted into
a Fricker's
sans its cupola. |

The Fricker's recycled Dutch pantry's trapezoid sign
but without the trademark windmill. |

|
Highway
interchange realignment probably wreaked havoc with Mansfield's
business! The unit was one of those that had been built,
owned, and operated by Hospitality Motor Inns. |

into a Perkins, but by the middle 2000s it had ceased being
a Perkins. |
