Heard A report yesterday that the owners have decided not to reopen. Damn that sucks. I was a frequent patron of Finnegans between '06 and'12. Met many friends and good Folks there. Bruce is a good Man.
That's a shame, I feel bad for the owners and displaced employees.
I suppose the open floor plan restaurants should compartmentalize their seating - less of the big beer hall style and more nooks and booths like an Irish pub. The open layouts get too loud for me anyway.
