I am certain many of us have memories of some great meals here in the old Mansfield’s Restaurant located on the corner of Market St. and 1st Ave., which is shown above in the late 1960’s. In the 1940’s, the restaurant was located on the south-west corner of Market St. and 2nd Ave where the Coca-Cola mural is visible on the wall today. Mansfield’s closed several years ago. Since their closing, many other restaurants have occupied this building. Today, the current restaurant serves authentic Mexican recipes.
