The Your Stories team has received many questions about local restaurants and the move of Calico Gals. Here are some answers:
A new Coppertop TavernAlong Milton Avenue, near Fairmount Four Corners, the old Pensabene's Park West restaurant is about to become the region's second Coppertop Tavern. Coppertop's mother ship in North Syracuse has been popular for some time now, and the owners decided this is the time to expand. The Coppertop on Milton Avenue will open November 29.
One McDonald’s opens, another closesFast food fans in Oswego have a brand new McDonald’s on route 104. It had been closed since the end of June for renovations, and those renovations include one of the region's first R-Music Playplaces. It will be one of only ten in the nation to feature the musically themed interactive play area.
The new McDonald’s in Oswego is firmly set to throw open the doors Thursday morning, November 12 at 9:30 a.m.
In Old Forge, the McDonald’s located near Enchanted Forest and Water Safari closed two years ago, and they have announced it will not be returning.
A spokesperson for the local McDonald’s franchises says it was such a seasonal business in Old Forge, they couldn't justify keeping it open.
Calico Gals MovesAlong New Court Avenue, Calico Gals has found a new home. The popular quilt shop and sewing center that thrived for years in the canal barn on cedar bay road opened for business just this week in its new location. Owner Janet Lutz says she's thrilled with the big, new space in the brand new building right next door to the “No Name Diner” on New Court Ave.
