The history is a little murky, but we do know one thing for sure: D&T first got its name in 1959 when Mrs. McKeehan took over an old ice house. She named it D&T after her sons, Dan and Ted. From what we can gather, it's been a home, a convenience store, and a "real" ice house-the kind of place that sold blocks of ice to people to keep their food cold in their "ice boxes," before commercial refrigeration was readily available. The place changed hands a few times: Johnny, Marie, Terry, Lilly, Debra are a few we know for sure-but it stayed a beer joint for Brooke Smith and the Heights. We're pleased to be behind the bar now. We've got 50 beers on tap, a great kitchen, and a smile ready for you every day of the year. We enthusiastically live our values of community, quality, hospitality, education, and fun every day.The history is a little murky, but we do know one thing for sure: D&T first got its name in 1959 when Mrs. McKeehan took over an old ice house.
