Pirate Cavern, Anaheim

Chicago Tony's Pirate Cavern has been surrendered to the bulldozer. Once the bustling jewel of Northwest Anaheim's entertainment scene, home of the skiffle group The Buccaneers (featuring Bob West, Bob Chance, Luke Harp and Jerry LaFavor), it is all but a memory now, a victim of Orange County's ongoing ruthless, shortsighted campaign to rid itself of all of the neighborhood bars. You can view the vacant lot from the Walgreens that sits in the space previously occupied by Betty's Inn.
