Breakfast Changes :: First Friday! :: Eat Drink Beacon :: Retail Therapy Guide 6/2/2023

Big news out of Beacon this week is that Mr. V's may close at the end of June when their lease ends, if a good match of a buyer isn't found. A Little Beacon Blog interviewed Maggie, the owner and daughter of the actual Mr. V, and she is adamant that she is tired and ready to retire. Running a business like that is exhausting, which she talks about in this interview.                                       THE EVENTS + RETAIL THERAPY GUIDE Book an Event Promotion Advertising spot here.
