Twoheys Celebrates 80th Anniversary as a Local Family-Owned Landmark

Twohey’s Restaurant, a San Gabriel Valley dining scene staple, recently celebrated its 80th anniversary as a family-owned local landmark. Since its founding in 1943, Twoheys has proudly served the community with its signature dishes and fountain specialties.

Located right here in Alhambra in the 1950s, the former location featured memorable drive-up carhop services from the 50s to the mid-1970s. It is now located in South Pasadena.

Twoheys hosted a series of events last month to commemorate the milestone anniversary. These celebrations symbolized the restaurant’s deep community roots, commitment to continuing to serve, and connection with its customers for generations to come.

“We’re thrilled to be celebrating 80 years in business.” said owner Tanya Christos. “It’s truly an honor to be a part of this community. We wish to thank our loyal customers for making it possible for us to keep our doors open all these years.”

The well-known eatery offers an updated twist on the American diner experience with alfresco dining, a Happy Hour menu, and a full bar with hand-crafted specialty cocktails. The selection of classic American dishes—many dating back to the original menu—includes soups, salads, sandwiches, clubs, melts, burgers, and onion rings. A full breakfast menu is served until 3 p.m. each day. Vegetarian and vegan selections are also available.

Twoheys is open for breakfast, lunch, Happy Hour, and dinner every day except Tuesdays. In addition, Twohey’s Restaurant offers customers their Food Truck and off-site catering services.
