Carriage Room on the corner of Salmon/Broadway- The Nineteenth Hole/The Cupboard/Pantry was in the same building as The Broadway Theatre but further south on the west side.

Note: In the book A Curious and Peculiar People by David Grant Kohl, The 19th Hole is stated at 1002 SW Broadway [this would mean the space was on Broadway. The Carriage Room was on the North Corner, then the doors into the Broadway Theatre so this would be right next to the front door going south]. The book also mentions that it was in the Keller-Boyd Building. Whereas The Cupboard and Pantry are located at 620 SW Salmon again at the Broadway Theater]. Right off Broadway between Broadway and 6th Street. He also states on page 13, “Stumptown’s older bars, which had been quiet “gay” gathering places, received increased business, and new bars opened to serve the wartime and post-war crowds. With a setting of relaxed morality, several gathering places were relaxed morality, several gathering places were Broadway Theater building the Rathskeller near Broadway Theater building the Rathskeller near the Greyhound terminal and the YMCA; the Buick Cafe; the Music Hall Club; the Harbor Club; and Dinty Moore’s Tavern, next to the Club; and Dinty Moore’s next to the Lotus on SW 3rd.”

This bar is mentioned by Holman, Duane Frye, and local resident Larry Wormington, which suggests a wide patronage in the city, although it wasn’t open very long. It was located next to the old Broadway Theater. Also called The Pantry, it had a mixed clientele and was frequented by many gays because they could buy cocktails there and also have dinner.
