Ricardo’s Original Tavern House–owned by Brenda and Rick Rodriguez, and a fixture on Main Street since the late 1960s when it was Rick’s grandparents’ Pancho’s Villa–has been purchased by Kim Culver-Adams and Richard Adams of Lower Saucon Township, who plan to rename it 1774 Grill, renovate the interior and serve a menu that emphasizes fresh, local and organic ingredients, the article indicated.
Ricardo’s Original Tavern House is located at 605 Main St., Hellertown.
