Lisa and Michelle Little smile as a ribbon is cut outside The Centerville Cafe in Centralia on Wednesday during an event hosted by the Centralia-Chehalis Chamber of Commerce. The Centerville Cafe reopened Jan. 5 with new owners Michelle and Lisa Little in downtown Centralia. The cafe is located at 111 N. Tower Ave. in Centralia. Both Michelle and Lisa Little grew up in the area and have been going to The Centerville Cafe for over 20 years. Before being approached by the previous owners, Marion Manzer and Morris Gall, about purchasing the restaurant, Michelle Little managed a restaurant in Olympia, and Lisa Little worked as a nurse. Manzer and Gall wanted the restaurant to stay family owned to maintain the spirit of The Centerville Cafe in Centralia. According to the chamber, the cafe got its name in 2013 when Manzer and Gall bought what had been called the “Jersey Diner” and renamed it after the original name of Centralia, which was Centerville. The Centerville Cafe — under various names — is more than 120 years old. “We focus on having really good food, cooked with love. We want it to feel like home when you come in. Our staff really makes this place amazing,” Michelle Little said.

HISTORY PHOTO OF THE WEEK: This 1920 photo is of a Centralia plant that manufactured briquettes from coal dust using a petroleum-based binder. It was located in the vicinity of what is now the 1100 block of J and K streets in Centralia. The plant was in operation during the early 1920s and was run by a man known as "King" Kenny and his brother. The third man from the left in this photo is Sutton Nunn. Nunn was born in England in the town of Sutton and worked at the time at the plant. He came to Centralia by way of Canada and married Elsie Wright Nunn. The couple had three children they raised in Centralia. Nunn descendants remain in the area. This photo and information was originally submitted by Jim Nunn, grandson of Sutton Nunn, for The Chronicle’s Our Hometowns books.
