It was remodeled in the 1970s and has been restored in recent years. It originally opened as Stanley Burke's Coffee Shop on Van Nuys Boulevard and became Corky's in the early 1960s as it transitioned to being open 24 hours a day / 7 days a week. Billy Joel played piano at the eatery in the 1970s. After 25 years as Corky's it became the Lamplighter, and was used in 2010 as a filming location for Nightmare on Elm Street.
