The New Carlisle News has learned that the Tavernette is in the final stages of purchase this week. After a long, tantalizing summer spent driving by the restaurant and seeing it’s “under repair” notice change to a “for sale” sign, I began to wonder if I’d ever eat at my favorite restaurant again, lamenting the loss of relish trays, orange vinyl seats, and the warm roaring fireplace.
We will bring you an official update with the new owners of the Tavernette once the purchase is finalized. We’re looking forward to finding out their plans for western Clark County’s favorite steakhouse, as well as what happened to all those toys.
