The venue’s transformation from stagecoach stop, brothel, and infamous sports gambling den, to the family and dog-friendly restaurant, sports bar, and live music venue that it is today is a testament to 7 Mile House's colorful reincarnation throughout the decades, and the love and dedication that Garcia has put into the business.
Obsessed with its history since she took over in 2004, Garcia has collected trivia and bits of information from various sources—old regulars, employees, and descendants of old owners. It was only early this year, however, that she finally found the time to pore over all the documents, maps, periodicals, and books from different libraries and government offices.
“I’ve always been fascinated by this place’s history,” Garcia says. “Whenever old regulars come in, I make it a point to keep in touch. I feel I owe it to those who started 7 Mile House, and those who continue to make it a special place, to share these stories. 7 Mile is what it is because of all these people, and I think it’s only proper to keep their memories and stories alive.”
