Tee Jaye’s Country Place Restaurants
Company History
Tee Jaye’s
Country Place is a family-owned, family-operated company
that believes every business starts with certain basic
principles: a belief in who we are… what we represent …
how we conduct business … and how we feel about our
customers and employees.
When our founders, Jules
and Nita Sokol, opened their first restaurant, in
September 1970, they wanted it to be an extension of
their family and home. A friendly, folksy, warm place in
which their customers could relax and feel just plain
good. They also wanted to serve the kind of meals they
grew up with - home cooked, freshly made and with
generous portions!
Our Founders
Jules Sokol
Nita Sokol
They had a dream about a restaurant that had real
“down home” food, served up in a place that’s just like home. They put all of
that together and Tee Jaye’s
Country Place became a reality!
That’s how Tee Jaye’s Country Place Restaurants
began and that’s how our restaurants are operated today.
Friendly folks serving our customers quality food, the
very best we can make it. We try to make everyone feel
they’ve received good value for their money.
We now have ten locations in
Columbus, Ohio and the surrounding area. When you walk into Tee Jaye’s and hear that friendly
greeting “Howdy Folks!” please know that it comes from
the heart.
