In 1986 Chappell's started out as a cozy little political/sports bar and grill. In the 18 years since, visitors, athletes, news people, and television stations from all over the world have come to find their particular sport and piece of memorabilia in which they are interested. The owner, Jim Chappell, has created a restaurant that is both comfortable and casual. From the beginning, the restaurant served such good food that the demand caused expansion, renovation and two more expansions. The "cozy little bar" now seats 235 serving everything from the popular Zagat raved, half-pound hamburger to steaks. People get excited about the memorabilia, but it is the good food that brings them back. Jim's hobby for collecting became a passion and the restaurant is chock full of sports memorabilia. Customers usually find it and an eager owner/host who willingly leads them around the restaurant showing and explaining the awesome memorabilia. Customers are welcome to look at the many items on display and tour the restaurant at their leisure. Jim would love to meet and talk with you, so if you have any questions, be sure to ask.
