Ike's closed when First Presbyterian bought the building on the west side of the street, along with Boston Deli.  I know Boston Deli was doing very well and assume Ike's wasn't doing badly either.  Did Ike's ever re-open another location in Downtown after that?  If that's what you are thinking of then I was unaware.

I only knew of Ike's being in the Billy's Pi location, next to the also-closed BBQ place. There is a Boston Deli in First Place tower.

I can't place the Billy's Pi location.  Keep in mind, it's been 17 years since I worked Downtown last and kept track of what all there was for lunch down there in the CBD (other than Joe Momma's, of course).

Right next to Boston Deli between 6th & 7th on the west side of Boston, as I recall.

map!

The former Ike's Chili (formerly Billies Pi) = NE Corner of 5th and Main
The place is still Ikey.

Edit... there was some deli (forgot the name...) on Boston between 7th & 8th.  In some churches "Community Life" building or somesuch.  Definitely not Ike's or near Ikes..
Or there was Nelson's..  between 5th & 6th on Boston...

That would be the Southeast corner, not northeast corner.  And, while the signage is still in the windows, Ike's has been closed for several years.  (I think it was open less than 1 year at this location)

  You mean north doesn't follow the direction you're looking?

It will if you have the proper magnetic personality properties.

Is the recumbent bike shop still in business (Recumbents of Okla)?  Nice guy owned the place downtown (now Zorbas), hope he's still around somewhere.

His hours kept getting shorter and shorter. My bet is that he moved it to his house or somewhere he could just work part time.

It always seemed odd to me that a recumbent store was downtown. The market for people who want recumbents and recumbent parts is so miniscule that you could locate anywhere and they would come to you. It's not like people walking by in downtown are gonna buy a recumbent because of the location. You could put that place in the cheapest piece of real estate in town.

Recumbents of Oklahoma moved to Sand Springs.

204 N McKinley, Sand Springs

918-514-4630

Always call first, Roo (the older gentleman who runs it) keeps odd hours. Still has the best prices in town (including assembly charges some have it cheaper if you get it not assembled but charge much more to assemble it.) for Recumbent Bicycles, and about the only place that has them in stock. Always makes sure the bicycle fits the person and there needs.
