Lou's Cafe

From Futurepedia, the Back to the Future Wiki

Lou's Cafe in 1955.

Lou's Cafe was a diner in Hill Valley, located at Hill Street and Main Street. The cafe's owner was Lou Caruthers. Hamburgers were 25 cents, ham and cheese sandwiches were 30 cents, and a chocolate sundae was 15 cents.[1]

Before the founding of the cafe, the site was the location of a bar known as the Palace Saloon. By 1985, Lou's Cafe had become Lou's Aerobic Center. By 2015, the Cafe 80s had replaced Lou's Aerobic Center.

[edit] History

Marty McFly wandered in on November 5th, 1955. He showed signs of being unaccustomed to the times by ordering a Tab and a Pepsi Free before finally settling on "something without any sugar." Marty also raised some suspicion from Lou when his digital watch alarm went off while he was trying to call Doc Brown.

While at the cafe, Marty saw his father, George McFly as a teenager. He also saw Biff Tannen and his gang. There was also a possible disruption of the original space-time continuum when Marty tipped off Goldie Wilson that one day he would be mayor.

Another major event that occurred at Lou's Diner was George McFly asking Lorraine Baines to the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance and the ensuing altercation between Marty and Biff which led to a skateboard chase around the town square and ultimately ended in Biff's first manure encounter.

Marty sat at Lou's Cafe at the end of his time in 1955 to write a warning letter to Doc Brown about the night he went back in time (October 26th, 1985).
