The main Border Grill location in Marquette moved within the past few years from McClellan Avenue around the corner right on Washington. I worked at the old location from 2000-2002. Some friends and I are trying to remember, what was in the old location before it became Border Grill? If you remember, they had the original place on the corner of 7th street, and expanded to the other location on McClellan. What was there first, a pizza place?

Mancino's sounds right. I did a little detective work and they shared the same address on the internet (180 S McClellan.) Case closed, thanks!

The other location on 7th was Taco John's, Entre Amigos at some point (I think?) The Border Grill Express. Across the street from there was the Border Grill prep kitchen, which is now Aubree's (or Dano's?) and was Papa Paul's Pasties a loooonnnng time ago.

Yes, manchinos was where walgreens is and the 2nd border grill was. the very first border grill use to be on 7th and Washington where the NY deli is now. Taco johns use to be there back in the 80's. Entre Amigos was never there it was only at the location where the wild rover is now. When I first read the question I was thinking of the very first border grill. The one that took over manchinos was actually the 2nd border grill and then they made their original one on 7th the border grill express.

It was Mancino's. I miss that place. My friends and I used to order from there all the time in college. Monday night special was like a 9" grinder (sub) w/ small drink for only like $3.50 or something ridiculously cheap. Loved it!
