A post sent out from the Jackson Tavern Facebook page today stated the following:
To our valued guests:
We are sad to report that effective immediately Jackson Tavern is closed.
We were excited to bring a taste of New England to Tucson and had hoped to serve our community for many years to come. Unfortunately the concept never took off the way that we thought it would and we won’t have that opportunity.
We would like to thank our staff for all of their hard work.
We would like to thank our guests for all of their support, and would welcome the opportunity to serve you at Poppy Kitchen.
Jackson Tavern’s closure marks the fourth closure for Metzger Family Restaurant following Jax Kitchen, The Abbey, and Gio Taco.
Poppy Kitchen remains open in the former J-Bar at La Paloma.
