This historic cafe is Contributing Building No. 17 within the National Register of Historic Places Nomination Form and part of the Union Creek Historic District, officially registered in 1980.
The Nomination Form says the following in regards to this contributing building:
17. Beckie's Cafe: 1935 - Single-story, shingled, wood frame structure, utilizing peeled poles in original part, multi-light sash windows. Enlarged in 1933, to include an L-wing on the south, the roof design was modified to exhibit hipped gables, the roof extended to provide cover for the open flagstone porch. The porch exhibits unique architectural treatment in the brackets made of knotted ends of tree limbs, and in the design of horizontal supports separated by small round verticals. The interior, both of the original structure and of the 1933 addition is exemplary, with hand-made furniture, stuccoed plaster, branded woodwork and varnished natural planking and beams. Exterior wall cover of uncoursed lava rock placed ca. 1936.
This cafe hasn't changed much (at least on the outside) since photos were taken of it in 1980.
