"Thank You For The Memories": Court Street's Watty And Meg Bids Farewell To Cobble Hill

Sad news!
This is not exactly how we were planning on starting the new year, but over the week-end, we found out that Watty And Meg, a much loved restaurant at 248 Court Street at Kane Street closed its doors as of January 1st, 2020. 
Its web site has been taken down and Yelp and a note on the door of the establishment thanks its patrons for twelve years of friendship, family and memories, but does nor reveal why the restaurant was closing.
By all appearances, Watty and Meg was very popular, especially when the weather was warm and patrons could sit outside on the sidewalk.
The eatery will be very much missed in the neighborhood. Let us hope a worthy replacement will soon take over this great corner location.

For those keeping track, the spot was formerly occupied by Caffe Carciofo.

One Business Closing And One Re-opening On Court Street

A sad sign appeared in the window of the Brooklyn Artisan Gallery at 221 A Court Street at the corner of Warren Street. After 14 years, the gallery will close on January 31th. It appears that it has been hard to make a go of it for a while. The current economy certainly will not be kind to places such as these. So sad!
But, here is a bit of good news:








Signs of life at former restaurant Caffé Carciofo at 248 Court Street. Currently, a restaurant/ wine liquor license has been applied for by a certain 'Bread and Butter Development Group, LLC'.
Does anyone know anything more?
