Rochester residents were met with disappointment as Carbone’s Pizza & Sports Bar, a beloved local establishment, announced its permanent closure via social media on Monday afternoon.
The announcement, shared on the restaurant’s Facebook page, left many patrons saddened and expressing their reactions in the comments section. The sudden closure came without a clear explanation, leaving customers puzzled about the reasons behind the decision.
Carbone’s Rochester location was a staple in the community, offering not just delicious pizza but also a vibrant sports bar atmosphere. While the closure came as a surprise to many, it appears that other Carbone’s locations in Minnesota, such as those in Faribault and Northfield, will continue to operate. However, with the Rochester location being the southernmost in the state, its absence leaves a noticeable void for local residents and pizza enthusiasts alike.
