Chicken Court

I’ve seen old advertisments and post cards for the Chicken Court, but never knew much about it. I moved to Windsor in 1989, and I didn’t recall it being open when I first came here.


A full page ad from the 1954 Visitor’s Guide to Windsor and Essex County.

Regular reader Darren, worked at the Chicken Court, from 1986 to the 1988 closing and sent along these artifacts…

A pair of old poscards of the interior.

A scan of the letter employees recieved on Valentine’s Day, 1988.

Of couse, any good photographer would bring his camera along to work, and here are a few photos he took:

A pair of photos of the bakery.

A few of the basement Banquet Room.
