Trivia

The "Cafe 80's" restaurant in 2015 is a conglomeration of the storefront's two previous incarnations in Back to the Future. In 1955, it was the home of "Lou's Cafe" and in 1985, it was an health/workout club. While the "Cafe 80's" is primarily a restaurant, there are people seen working out on the exercise bikes (seen when Griff tells the riders "Keep paddling, you two"). See more »

Goofs

Continuity: Marty is able to cross the café instantly as the camera cuts (just before saying "I'll show you") See more »
