Third-generation owner Jim Mitchell has decided to expand his bar and focus on the catering business.
"It's time to slow down. The years I've missed with my family and friends -- I'm going to make up for lost time," he said.
Mitchell called it a bittersweet decision, but after working 12 hours a day for 38 years, he said he's ready to take it easy.
