Known for its iconic 1950s-style diner six miles down the street from Northern Kentucky University, Chester Alford opened The Spare Time Grill in 1958. His son, Roy, ran it for 20-plus years and then Roy's son, Tony, ran it for 24 years.
The diner has appeared in two movies, "Fresh Horses" in 1972 and "Carol" in 2014.
Fort Thomas Matters profiled the diner's Pay It Forward window earlier this year, which allows customers to buy anything—a burger, a cup of coffee or a piece of pie—for someone else. After telling their server, they grab a Post-it note and on it write who they'd like to receive their gift.
