All that is left of Fast Eddy's Cafe, a 24 hour cafe right next to the Metro nightclub on Bourke St.

 

32 Bourke St

Melbourne VIC 3000.

Another of Modesto's best-kept secrets. Good burgers, and a interesting place to dine at. The collections of nicknacks the adorn the dining area are worth taking a look inside.

 

MOAB is the descendant of a previous eatery called the Walking Chicken, originally owned by Sid and Felicity Cheatham. The Walking Chicken relocated to the location that would eventually become MOAB on Tully Road near Roseburg Ave in 1952.

 

As the story goes, they were eventually know for their Five by Five burger, featuring a 5 by 5 inch square meat patty. One day, a paper salesman by the name of Erv Keller (Who would go on to found Keller's Gift store, another long-lived Modesto institution that still exists to this day) stopped in to order a burger. He proceeded to wrap the burger in a extra large piece of paper, fastening it with a toothpick, and declared, "Here it is -- A Meal On A Bun."

 

The Cheatams bought the paper from Keller, and eventually renamed the restaurant "MOAB - Meal On A Bun".

 

Eventually, the Cheathams sold the business to Bob and Vi McCarthy in the 1960s. Their son, Eddie Gibson, was hired by his mother in 1962, and took over running MOAB in 1975, renaming the eatery "Fast Eddie's MOAB." Eddie still runs the place to this day.

The interior of Fast Eddie's MOAB, as it appeared in 1968. The decades-long collection of items that adorns the interior today has yet to populate the dining area, and the mural along the back and side interior walls is well visible.

 

The mural depicts the history of California from the Gold Rush days to the days of the Dust Bowl era, featuring the downtown Modesto Arch, and ending in a mid-1960s era view of San Francisco and the the bridges leading to the city.

 

The wooden dining tables and chairs are still present in the dining area as of today.

This place was originally purchased by the Anheurser Busch Co. in 1921. It was sold in 1931 due to the fact that a change in statutes, during prohibition, didn't allow breweries to own drinking establishments. The place was purchased by a father and son and stayed in operation for the next 50 years. In 1981, Eddie Sholar bought the business and made major changes. It is now a destination road house for people of all ages and is one of the largest places of its kind in the midwest. It is extremely popular and well known for it's menu of super low priced specialty foods. Live bands (and real cold beer) attract large crowds on week-end nights; even with numerous expansions, the place is packed, with standing room only. I've read mixed reviews but it sounds like a great menu - unbeatable low prices, big portions, and delectable flavor! Hit the official FE website to get more info!
