Listen to this article
After more than 20 years as a community fixture, the Country Table Restaurant in Mount Joy will close.
Tom and Rosemarie Daly, the owners of the eatery at 720-740 E. Main St., are retiring, a release said.
The restaurant will officially shut its doors April 16.
The Bake Shoppe, operated by the couple’s son and daughter-in-law, Tom Jr. and Jessica Daly, will remain open, as well as First Citizens Bank. The restaurant space will be available for lease, and the whole property is available for sale.
According to a listing from High Associates Ltd., which is marketing the 4.01-acre property, the asking price for the three-unit, 16,153-square-foot retail center is $2.9 million.
The 8,080-square-foot restaurant space features a large, open dining area with a separate room for additional dining or private parties. Within the past three years, the owners made several upgrades to the property, including new roofing, parking and landscaping improvements. There are approximately 180 parking spaces.
“We are so grateful for the many years that we have had to serve you and your families – you have become our friends,” Tom and Rosemarie Daly said in a statement.
“We have watched your children grow up before our eyes, as you have watched ours. We have cried tears with you when you have had to say final goodbyes to your loved ones, we miss them with you. … To our amazing staff both past and present … your commitment to great service and the serving of our community is appreciated and valued. … Please know that much prayer and consideration went into this decision and we feel the time is right for us to say goodbye.
“… Our search will continue for someone to take over the restaurant side or put a new business in that space. It has been an honor to serve you all and we will miss seeing you! We look forward to getting some much-needed rest and spending lots of time together and with our children and 10 grandchildren.”
