We believe this Willow pattern plate in brown was used by Busch’s Hotel and Restaurant, located at Sea Isle City, N.J.
Apparently George Busch opened the location as a hotel in 1882, and the restaurant was established in 1912. It is not known when the hotel closed.

Busch’s is still in business today (2013) at Townsend’s Inlet and known as Busch’s Seafood Restaurant. This information comes from Michael F. Stafford’s book, “Sea Isle City.”

Thanks to ebay seller mod!! for the use of his photos.
