About Us
Welcome to AJ’s Bar & Grill, a fixture in the local dining scene since 1993, and under our proud ownership, Kevin and Cora LaBarr, since September 2017. While the establishment had a rich history, our chapter began with a lifelong dream of mine, Kevin: a deep-seated passion for bringing people together through great food and genuine hospitality.
For over forty years, my career was in the automotive industry. Alongside that, my passion for cooking always simmered. It was more than a hobby; it was a way to connect and share joy. The dream of owning a restaurant, a place to share my culinary creations, was ever-present. When the opportunity to take over this established restaurant arose, it felt like the perfect moment to turn that aspiration into reality. We saw incredible potential to build upon its foundation and infuse it with our vision.
