Last call at Wayne Tavern

by Matthew Tho/ey web manager

First Partners, and now the Wayne Tavern. The Wayne Tavern is officially scheduled to close on May 31.

The Wayne Tavern is scheduled to close because of complications with the new lease. According to Dave Vogelsorg, manager of twelve years, the current owners of Wayne Tavern increased the rent, basically forcing the Wayne Tavern to close.

The Wayne Tavern is going to be converted into A Great American Pub, which is a bar and restaurant.

Vogelsorg is very sad to see the Wayne Tavern close. "I've been here for twelve years. There are always people stopping by to say hello. This place has a lot of memories," said Vogelsorg.

Joe McCullough, junior, an early childhood education major, is not content with the closing of the Wayne Tavern.

"The Wayne Tavern is a good place to go and unwind with your friends. It is not too loud,

The Wayne Tavern's for the last time. and has a chill atmosphere," said McCullough.

Vogelsorg is also upset to see one of the Main Line's last corner bars come to an end. Vogelsorg would also appreciate, if everyone came out on May 31, to support the closing. " I would love to see the surrounding community present at our closing." Vogelsorg said.
