Old Jho's Pit Stop was a repair facility and cantina named after its owner, an Ithorian named Jho. The crew of the Ghost were regulars, and would sometimes use the cantina as safe harbor.
Description
One of the few places where Lothal's old frontier spirit still survived,[4] Old Jho's Pit Stop was a remote repair facility[5] located in the heart of a small outpost informally known as "Jhothal,"[1] both of which were named after the facility's owner, an Ithorian named Jho.[2][6] Located hours from Capital City,[4] the Pit Stop's main attraction was a cantina where Old Jho served drinks,[5] popular with locals and travelers alike.[2] It was said to be the only place on Lothal where one could enjoy refreshments while their vehicle's power converters were being changed. Unlike some, Jho did not discriminate, and as long as one had credits to spare, he would serve whatever a customer wanted, which included humans, humanoids, and even droids, whether it was bantha milk or lubricator fluid.[5] However, Old Jho's Pit Stop was not particularly Empire-friendly, ignoring an Imperial mandate that the HoloNet News be played at all times.[2] Despite this, TIE fighter pilots and other Imperials could still be found there.[4]
The cantina was decorated with relics from the Clone Wars, including a Phase I clone trooper helmet on a shelf behind the bar[7] and what appeared to be the nose of a Low Altitude Assault Transport known as the Crumb Bomber, which Jho claimed was authentic,[1] was mounted above its entrance.[7] The repair facility's signage, written in a combination of Outer Rim Basic and Aurebesh, was featured on a pair of LAAT/i wing attached on either side of the Crumb Bomber's nose.[8]
The Pit Stop served bererages such as spicebrew and ice-cold fizzy,[5] as well as deserts such as space waffles and Muja sauce, minced Loth-rat pie, Jogan fruit cake, blue milk custard, and spiced nysillin tea.[9]
