Latrobe Restaurant Guide

The original Touchdown Club was formally organized in 1947, holding meetings at The Mission Inn located at the Route 981 and Route 30 crossroads. Its founders previously met at Sharp's Restaurant on Route 30 near Mountain View Inn. The premise of the Club's foundation was to "increase public interest in sports and athletic games and to assist students, with proven scholarship ability at St. Vincent College and in need of financial aid, in continuing their education."

In 1954, the Club was moved to Murphy Mansion on Center Drive (presently the Carmelite Monastery) and moved again in 1960 to its present location on Route 30 in Latrobe. In November 2005 the original Touchdown Club closed.

Then just a few months later, the new Touchdown Club II was reopened by Michael Molina and Jonathan Miller. These young gentlemen, both residents and graduates of Latrobe, plan to continue many of the same traditions that started back in 1947. The tradition of a friendly gathering spot has been here for many years and will continue to be in the future. Spend some time around the Club and you will hear a lot of reminiscing!
