The Braintree location of the Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery chain shut its doors yesterday evening. According to the Patriot Ledger, the restaurant, which was located in the South Shore Plaza near the Braintree Split, decided to close after seven years because of a decline in business. The Ledger also reports that there probably won't be any other closures within the company.
Rock Bottom is a chain of about 30 restaurants that features handcrafted beers and pub grub. Most of their restaurants are located in the Middle Atlantic region, the Great Lakes and Midwest, and the West Coast. There are currently no other Rock Bottom locations in New England. (CORRECTION--THE ROCK BOTTOM IN THE THEATER DISTRICT OF BOSTON IS STILL OPEN. -Ed)
