Its a great memory we discussed on Thanksgiving…. Does anyone know if the original owners were related to the Kimball’s of Westford that started the ice cream stand?

Ha! Great story Bob! I worked there in the late 80′s and remember in the kitchen 2 boys from Brazil. Mello and Juarez……That’s it. I don’t remember any other names…..My brother was a bus boy there and all the waitresses loved him…….I have a picture of me in my uniform and a picture of those boys. I think I will post them on my Greenridge Facebook. Thanks for responding!

I don’t remember Rita, but I don’t remember anyone outside of the kitchen staff. I’m not sure I ever saw the waitresses. It was strange in that I never made it out of the kitchen. The first time I saw the restaurant was when we moved there in 1963. We stayed at the hotel right next to it until we found a house to rent. So I had eaten there quite a bit around 1963 and years later it ended up being my first job. I worked all summer and bought my first electric guitar with the money I saved.

Thanks, Linda, for posting about the Facebook page. This is one of my more popular posts. I bet a lot of people reading this post are former employees of the Greenridge.

Bob, I worked there in the 80′s as a waitress. Do you remember Rita? I think her name was Rita….she was elderly by the time I was employeed there. She was one of the managers I believe.

My first job was washing dishes at Green Ridge. For lunch you could have anything on the menu expect lobster or stuffed jumbo shrimp. I always got the swordfish stake.
