It is with heavy hearts that we share the decision to permanently close the doors of our beloved Castle Lounge. This was an extremely difficult decision, and certainly not made overnight. For 45 years, the Castle Lounge has been more than just a bar—it’s been a place where friendships were forged, memories were made, and our dad’s legacy was carried forward with pride. Closing the doors on a sustainable business that has been a thriving part of our community for so many years is incredibly difficult. However, after a great deal of deliberation, we’ve come to the heartbreaking conclusion that this chapter, for our family, has come to an end. We understand many are shocked and confused by this decision. Everyone seeks answers, and some may create their own narratives to cope with the situation. However, to put it simply , this was our dad’s dream, not ours. While we've worked hard to continue his legacy since his passing, five years ago, our lives have just taken different directions. Our dad lives on in every corner of this bar and his legacy will remain in our hearts forever.
To our amazing customers and our dedicated crew—past and present—there are not enough words to express our love and gratitude. Thank you for being the heart and soul of the Castle Lounge for the last 45 years. You’ve made this journey unforgettable. This has truly been an incredible ride, and we are so grateful for the amazing memories we’ve all shared together.
From all of us…Thank you everyone!
With much love and admiration,
The Brugaletta Family
