"Curly the tramp sidled toward the free-lunch counter. He caught a fleeting glance from the bartender's eye, and stood still, trying to look like a business man who had just dined at the Menger and was waiting for a friend who had promised to pick him up in his motor car. Curly's histrionic powers were equal to the impersonation; but his make-up was wanting."


The Menger Hotel
204 Alamo Plaza
San Antonio, TX 78205

Built in 1859, this beautiful structure has become an important part of San Antonio's history.
