Oh man, I completed forgot I stopped at this tavern on my section hike of the AT! Why is it closed?!

So there's a local businessman who buys restaurants and closes them with promises of remodeling and bringing them back in a grand fashion. And then they just stay closed. Currently he owns the Tavern, the Deer Lodge, and the Holly Inn. I really think he's slightly fucked up in the head. Like he is super successful in his main business and I really think he believes he's going to improve these places but then just doesn't really get around to it? Idk but I'd say he is single handedly driving down property values in Mount Holly and Boiling Springs by shuttering their most iconic restaurants.

Oh, no - that’s honestly awful! That has to be extremely frustrating. I hope he gets his shit together and actually fixes them up or at least sells them to someone who will!
