A dilapidated riverfront bar in Pohatcong Township is getting resurrected — with a twist on its former identify.
Hoots Riverside Taproom is reopening after eight shuttered years beneath the brand new identify of Hootz Bar & Grille, in keeping with the house owners of the bar at 12 River Highway. The bar opened within the Sixties and closed round 2014, in keeping with Christopher Kern of Bethlehem and Cory Wohlbach of Hellertown. The house owners purchased the property about 5 years in the past as a “facet hustle” to their common full-time jobs.
