About the Business

In 1873, restauranteur Henry Meyer bought a 10-year-old brick building and opened The Meyers Hotel. At the heart of this establishment he constructed an elegant bar with polished woods and sparkling mirrors. He named it The Paris Cafe.
Thomas Edison is said to have used The Paris Cafe as a second office. Annie Oakley and Buffalo Bill Cody, as well as the famous outlaws, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, were guests at the elegant establishment.
Teddy Roosevelt was said to have dropped in on occasion while serving as the head of the New York City Police Department. His purpose was to collar officers who indulged themselves while on duty! Ironically less than a decade later, the 1930's notorious organized crime figures, Albert Anastasias and Louis Lepke, of Murder Inc., came to the Paris Cafe to convene under the dim lights to plot the murder of their enemies.

Established in 1873.
