We stopped missing WOB several years ago. It opened right about when we closed on our villages home in 2015 and we very much enjoyed it the first three or so years. They used to have excellent service, decent food, and an exceptional inventory of beer. The first couple of years, they would bring you a tablet that easily allowed you to search through their extensive beer selection using multiple filters to help focus in on specific beers based on specified criteria. Over time, the place went on a slippery downhill slope until it wasn’t even on our list of places to consider going to. I can’t say I’m surprised at all to learn of the closing. Spanish Springs is definitely in a transition, the two new FMK restaurants and Blondies are definitely positive, while the vacated Margarita Republic and WOB establishments are both large empty prime location buildings. It will be interesting to see what eventually fills these empty locations?
