A popular Roseville restaurant closed its doors over the weekend after eight years in business.
Brickyard Kitchen & Bar recently announced that Sunday was its last day of service at 1475 Eureka Road, Suite 120, noting the decision to close was made after careful consideration.
“We have loved being a part of the Roseville community and want to thank our patrons and community for supporting us throughout the years,” the restaurant wrote in a farewell message to its customers on Facebook.
“We could not have made it through COVID without you!” the team added.
The Sacramento-area business opened in 2016 as Hop House, rebranding roughly one year later as Backyard Kitchen & Bar.
As of Tuesday morning, restaurant representatives were not immediately available to comment on the recent closure.
What is Brickyard Kitchen & Bar? What was on the menu?
