Bahooka Ribs & Grog - West Covina

West Covina, California, United States

This was Bahooka's original location, in West Covina. Bahooka was started by two brothers and a sister in 1967 (The Fliegel Family). One of the brothers, Jack, had worked for 10 years at Kelbo's. The building was expanded over the years, which was ultimately its downfall. It grew over a property line, and in the ensuing dispute, Bahooka lost its lease. In 1980, the building was demolished. Four years earlier a second Bahooka location had been opened in Rosemead, and that location stayed in operation until January 2013.

Cocktail menu shown is @1973.
