There comes a time when even the most well-liked businesses must say farewell. While we are lucky enough to see more and more new restaurants opening in our region, sadly we have lost some old time favorites along the way.
Here is a full list of bars and restaurants that have permanently closed so far in 2022. Use this list as a friendly reminder to support your local favorites before they’re gone!
