Jake and Dorothy Roach opened their restaurant on June 12, 1948, and simply called it Jake and Dorothy's Cafe.Jake's daughter Kerry Anne grew up in the business and now owns the place.
The restaurant at 406 E. Washington survived the pandemic and last year, Texas Monthly named it one of the 40 Best Small-Town Cafes. More honors came last week when Jake and Dorothy's Cafe received the Texas Treasure Business Award. The award is an initiative of the Community Heritage Division of the Texas Historical Commission , and honors businesses that have been in operation within Texas for over 50 years.
