Beebe’s Dairy, as seen in the 1950s, was owned by Lester Beebe on Town Street until the Norwich Town Mall was constructed in the early 1960s. When the mall was built there was no entrance from Town Street due to the Yantic River running behind Beebe’s. The building was razed and a new bridge was constructed over the river, at this location, as an entrance to the new Norwich Town Mall. A new, smaller dairy bar was built as part of the mall. The name was changed to Bee Bee’s Dairy, owned by Dino Pappas. Eventually it was moved into the enclosed mall.
