Multiple U.S. Urban Bars Announce Closures After Years of Operation

Several notable bars and restaurants across the U.S. are closing or changing operations in 2025. San Antonio's My Brother's Bar, a longtime fixture near St. Mary's Strip, appears to have closed quietly after decades of operation, joining other recent closures like Pat O'Brien's and Good Time Charlie's. In Detroit, the craft cocktail bar Castalia at Sfumato announced it will close on New Year's Eve after eight years, with plans for new ownership and direction; the owners emphasize the closure is a strategic choice rather than due to financial or neighborhood issues. Similarly, Foxcroft Food & Wine in downtown Greenville is closing its location after October 31, while its other branches remain open. These closures reflect shifts in the hospitality scene, often tied to evolving business strategies and urban development impacts.
