Walk into Jerry Arena's new bar and grill and you might be greeted with a question, "Are you a millionaire?"

If the answer's yes, well, Arena's new place on Park Road might not be the place for you.

The Ten Cent Millionaire caters to those of us who want good beer, good food and a place to hang out with good people in an unpretentious atmosphere.

The menu doesn't even fill up both sides of a 5x7 card. It's standard bar grill food -- hot dogs, hamburgers, hoagies, mozzarella sticks, etc.

"What we make, we want to make right," said Arena, pictured right, explaining the limited menu.

It's a full-service bar with mixed drinks, more than half-dozen beers on tap, bottled beer and soft drinks.

Arena has completely remodeled the former hot dog stand, adding a curved bar, new booths, tables, a pool table, dart boards and five televisions.

He said getting the business open was a big job and he wanted to thank all the people who made the Ten Cent Millionaire possible.

Jerry Arena is planning to open a new bar at property he owns on Park Road. He will call it The Ten Cent Millionaire Tavern. He intends it to be a relaxing, affordable environment for a couple of drinks and maybe some chicken wings or a burger. 

He's already bought an attractive curved -- and very long -- bar for inside and is working on remodeling now.

There are some permits to secure from the Town of Batavia and he will add more space on the back of the building.

If everything goes to plan, he expects to open in the spring. More realistically, he said, he will likely open later in the summer.

One of my favorite parts of Spring in Batavia is charcoal-cooked hot dogs at Jerry Arena's pizzeria on Lewiston Road. I made my first stop of the season there today.
