The year was either 1974 or 1975. We were visitng California from our home state of Florida. We stopped at the restaurant you have pictured. Back then the food was good, the prices were average and the plate was full of food. We stayed at a motel a little way up the highway. Very beautiful area back then.
ReplyDeleteWas never there for Sea Shore Inn but have been to Gladstones.
ReplyDeleteWhat memories you bring back. Great blog!
ReplyDeleteThe same restaurant is used in the first scene of the 1972 NBC supernatural drama GHOST STORY. Gena Rowlands and Stuart Whitman play the opening act of "The Concrete Captain" in the parking lot beside the Sea Shore.
ReplyDeleteHa Ha, I worked at The Sea Shore Inn when I was a kid in the early 70's. It was a turn and burn tourist trap with horrible deep fried frozen fish. The owner was a great guy but a drunk named Austin Nienhauser. He owned the Sea Shore Inn and all the snack stands up PCH to Santa Monica Canyon called the "Neeney Way" which the name was used in the iconic Beach Boys song "Surf'n USA". I worked for them a few summers and had a BLAST growing up in Pacific Palisades when it was "Real"!!!
ReplyDeleteI worked for Mr. Nienhauser, too, in the same era (1973-4). I mainly worked the snack shacks "Neeny's Famous Weenies on the Beach." Young teens were allowed employment at these state beach franchises. $1.29 an hour was the below-minimum wage that was also allowed. It was great. Georgia was his bookkeeper, and Townsend was the Sea Shore Inn cook. Everyone else, it seemed, were kids. After 2 summers I lied about my age and started at the Chart House up the beach washing dishes.

ReplyDeleteDidn't the Seashore Inn become The Jetty? Georgia bought it from Nienhauser. He ended up with just the stands. I worked at all of them in the 70's. We had a lot of fun, at the beach stands at least. Georgia was a little more on top of things.
