Successful Opening for Park & Elm

Park & Elm – the new lunch spot and market – held a successful open house on Saturday, November 19th. This new Glens Falls hotspot features grocery items and a delicatessen. Customers wandered the aisles, appreciating both the offerings and the decor. During the opening, Park & Elm offered a casual look around, the opportunity to order from the deli, and purchase grocery items. There were also samples offered by The Argyle Cheese Farmer! Glens Falls mayor Bill Collins, fifth ward supervisor Ben Driscoll, and Assemblywoman Carrie Woerner were among those in attendance for the opening.    

This was only the beginning for the location, as a full restaurant will also share the space: Doc’s Restaurant – which closed its doors on that same evening – will be rebranding and filling the restaurant space. Doc’s originally operated across the street out of the Park Theater, but was in need of more space due to rising demand. Park & Elm will be focusing on farm to table ingredients provided by local producers. The market is located at 19 Park Street, and will be open Tuesday through Sunday, from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM.

The restaurant space was also on display during the opening. The exposed brick walls, dark wooden tables and electric blue accent walls promise to create a perfect dining atmosphere.

The restaurant’s mailing list is focusing on building that excitement in days to come. It will be used to keep customers up to date on when the opening will be taking place, as well as offer opportunities to be among the first to make reservations. The Park & Elm restaurant is expected to open in December. For more information, visit Park-Elm.com.
