Another
product of the 1937 renovation was a basement
Cafeteria. The bright and cheerful art-moderne
room was accessible via a stairway near the lobby's
Bagley entrance.
The
Cafeteria was the place to dine for those who
were pressed for time or cash. The prices were
moderate yet the service was just as excellent
as that found in the more pricey Terrace Room
and Cafe Rouge.
I
have found no mention of the Cafeteria after the
early 1960's. Whether it remained open or what
became of the space is unknown at the time of
this writing.
