The Brown Jug restaurant in Delaware, Ohio,  which first opened in 1946,  moved to its present location in 1970,  and has been operated by its current owners since 1977, has closed its doors after being sold to the Columbus-based Hoggy’s Restaurant & Catering.

 

Known for its meatloaf, steaks and barbeque pork ribs, the Brown Jug was also a popular stop for harness horsemen as Jug memorabilia adorned the walls, including photos, framed drivers’ colors and paintings. Hoggy’s officials told the Columbus Dispatch they plan on keeping some of the memorabilia.

 

"The Brown Jug was a local meeting place, and it has been for decades," Delaware Mayor Windell Wheeler told the Dispatch. "This is a major change for downtown Delaware, but we're looking to make it something real pleasant with lots of amenities."
