Busby's Cafe
- Thread starter ecampbell
- Start date
If it's for sale I would like to know the name of the realtor handling it. I hope Marilyn isn't selling out, but I know she will have to someday. I looked on MLS and didn't see anything.
She just leased out the front for the cafe. She moved her gift shop to the back. The cafe is doing very well she tells me.

An interesting article, but it has a major flaw in it. The author got his buildings confused. Read the article and tell me what you see wrong. You would have had to have been around before she bought it to know the flaw. Here is the paragraph in question.
Buzby’s, a landmark since 1865, had been abandoned since 1966. Marilyn Schmidt, who describes herself as “a convinced Piney,” came across the building while visiting the Barrens. “I hated to see the old building falling apart,” she says. She sold her home on Long Beach Island, bought Buzby’s, and for two years sank every penny she had into its restoration.

In the mid-70s I would ride there with a group of dirtbiking friends and we would fill up our bikes with gas.So it wasn't abandoned.
I thought the dates/buildings were off somehow, but my memory of the area starts in the mid-80's, so I was not sure.
I asked my wife if she knew about the cafe', because a woman in her Bible study has occasion to be to Buzby's somewhat frequently. She had not heard about it, though.
I need to make time to get out there...I want to hike the tracks a while.
