Jeds was owned by the Ankney's. Pete Ankney coached at Fairmont as the head football coack. He later was hired by the University of Dayton as head coach. He had a nickname of Punchy Pete and don't ask me where that came from. I think it was him and his brother but not sure.

I thought food was good and especially their salad bar and their baked beans. And yes it was on Dorothy Lane @ Ackerman. Seems like they had another location.

I grew up in Trotwood and we always went to the one on Free Pike not far from Salem and Gettysburg. I loved their ribs, salad bar and texas toast. I really miss them. Later when I moved to Kettering, I found there was one on Dorothy Lane and one out by the Dayton Mall. I wish they were still around.

The one on N. Broad in Fairborn had the best BBQ chicken I've ever eaten. There was another in Beavercreek near Lofino's which had really good lunches. I was sorry when they closed, I think around 1987. All went of them under at once.
