The owners of Roma and Bramhall have announced the closure of the Italian restaurant and downstairs bar. Their last day in business will be November 21st.
The announcement on the Roma instagram account reads in part,
It’s hard to find the right words for this, but after so many years of good food, strong drinks, familiar faces, and nights that turned into mornings, Bramhall and Roma will be closing their doors on November 21st.
We’ve made friends, shared stories, celebrated milestones, and built a little family within these walls. It’s hard to imagine saying goodbye.
Roma Cafe was launched by Dominic Marino in 1924 at 489 Congress Street, and it moved to 769 Congress in 1935. The restaurant remained in the Marino family until 1985 when it was bought by Peter Landrigan. It went out of business in 2008. It was relaunched in 2017 by a new set of owners led by Michael Fraser.
