Gene's Oyster Bar was actually an oyster bar long before Gene came on the scene. In 1941, Hiram Austin Conrad opened Conrad's Oyster Bar, which operated until his death in 1966. It wasn't until 1969 that Gene and Ann Bruner bought the building and opened up Gene's Oyster Bar, making the building one of the oldest original oyster bars in the area. Today, folks can tuck into some delicious seafood, including crab, shrimp, and - of course - oysters.
