Galveston's
Mary's Too
or, Mary's II
Bar

1974 - 1991
2502 Q 1/2 Street

Mary's II was a prominent early bar in Galveston.
It was opened by Fanny Farmer, the owner of Mary's
in Houston around 1974 (see article below).
But unfortunately I have not found much more
about its history.
And there's not much to be learned from
their ads, except verification of being in business.
