'Noooooooo': Popular Bar, Grill Shutting Down After 3 Years
The owner of Scooters Bar & Grill at 507 Danbury Road in New Milford announced the decision to shutter the restaurant in a Facebook post. It’s with a heavy heart that I announce the closing of Scooter’s this Monday Oct 7. I’ve made the difficult decision to step away in order to focus on other businesses and spend more time with my family. The support from this community over the years has meant the world to me, and I’ll never forget the memories we’ve created together. While this chapter is coming to a close, the connections we’ve built will stay with me. You just might see me around Connecticut soon. Please stop in this weekend to celebrate! With deepest gratitude,Vilson Vataj.
