Covid has been a destructive force to so many lives, families, friendships, and livelihoods. We have all felt the sting, some of us worse than others.
It’s with a very heavy heart that we will be closing our doors for good after this weekend’s (10/2-10/4) service. When we close Sunday evening. It will be the last time we lock the doors as Schoolyard Tavern. Unfortunately, trying to run a Sports Bar in this new reality is just not sustainable. Please join us, if you are able, this weekend to say goodbye to Schoolyard.
Please take a look around and see the devastation happening to our fellow brothers and sisters in the bar/restaurant and small business communities. Please support your local, small businesses as much as you are able to.
We love you all, and we cannot THANK YOU enough for all of your love and support over the years. Take care of yourselves and each other.
