Abstract:
Thad Eure, Jr. and Charles Winston opened the Angus Barn in Raleigh on June 28, 1960. They built their restaurant to look like a big red barn, a structure which burned four years later. Many thought the business would fail, but it has prospered and is included in the list of the fifty highest-grossing independent restaurants in the country. Eure died in the late 1980s, and his daughter Van took over operations in 1991.
