Oh, how I love
Sons of Hermann Hall. Jo Nicodemus might be the sweetest southern lady that Deep Ellum has ever known. She's done a phenomenal job of working to preserve this
historic fraternal order, which dates back to early New York, and further back still to
Germany. She, along with Mike Snider of
AllGood Cafe, have been keeping authentic
music,
food and
themed events (
Lolliprom was a blast) in this charming space. Built in 1911, it once housed a bowling alley. Way back in the day, horses used to be the way to get to the Sons. Oh, and they have great (friendly) ghost stories....
