The hair salon, established in 1938,[2] was staffed for many years by barber William "Sonny" Lea, who bought the business in 1969 after the Daniels' retirement.

[24] Inside, the lounge featured a bar in the shape of a horseshoe[2] and a performance area with a Hammond B3 organ famously played by Wild Bill Davis during his annual summer engagement at the club in the 1950s and 1960s.

In 1934 the Baltimore Afro-American reported that the Little Belmont Bar "has got that Harlem atmosphere", as it was featuring Israel Thompson's dance orchestra nightly with special appearance by Cotton Club dancer Amy Spencer.

[30][31] In the 1940s, jazz organist Wild Bill Davis began appearing at Grace's Little Belmont; he had a featured summer engagement here from 1950 through the mid-1960s.

Titled Wild Bill Davis and Johnny Hodges in Atlantic City, the LP was released on the RCA Victor label.

[37] In the summer of 1956 Wild Bill Davis introduced his new trio at the lounge, with musicians on organ, piano, and guitar performing both original compositions and pop music.

[25] Elvera M. "Baby" Sanchez, formerly a chorus line dancer at the Apollo Theater and mother of Sammy Davis Jr., began working as a barmaid at Grace's Little Belmont in 1941 after retiring from her show business career at age 35.

[42] Her connections with entertainers Count Basie, Billy Eckstine, and Sarah Vaughn drew these and other celebrities to her station, and her son Sammy would come to visit after performing across town at the 500 Club "and delighted everyone pouring drinks and singing".

[43] The Hammond B3 organ at Grace's Little Belmont was moved to Asbury United Methodist Church in Atlantic City after the club closed.

[27] Princeton's Antiques & Books of Atlantic City is in possession of miniature models of Grace's Little Belmont, Club Harlem, and other Kentucky Avenue nightspots fashioned by local artist Joseph Frazier.
