If These Walls Could Talk…
Long before we stepped through the doors, the 1313 Club and Saloon already had a story.
Actually… it had hundreds.
For generations, this place has been more than a bar. It’s been a meeting spot, a celebration hall, a quiet corner after a long day, and sometimes the place where life quietly changes course.
When we recently asked the community to share their memories of the 1313, the stories started pouring in.
And what we realized very quickly is this: The story of the 1313 doesn’t belong to us. It belongs to Wallace.

Behind the bar, on the floor, and in the kitchen, the team at the 1313 is the heart and soul of the place. They’re the friendly faces who remember your favorite drink, the ones who keep the laughter flowing as easily as the beer, and the reason a quick stop often turns into an evening you didn’t plan—but are glad you stayed for.
Many of them are locals who care deeply about Wallace and the people who walk through these doors. Together they carry forward the spirit of the 1313: welcoming, a little lively, and always ready to make another great story happen.

Today, the 1313 Club and Saloon enters its next chapter under new ownership by KimBerly Keyton and her mom Donna, who many know from the nearby Stardust Motel.
The goal isn’t to change what people love.
It’s to honor it.
To keep the doors open, the lights warm, the drinks flowing, and the stories continuing.
Because if the walls of this place could talk, they’d probably tell you the same thing everyone else has:
The best nights usually start with
"Let’s just stop in for one."
