SOLD: Bruno's Village Restaurant

Bruno's Village Restaurant on Hawkins Avenue in Lake Ronkonkoma has been sold and will turn over its bar stools for the final night on Sunday, according to Frank Giordano, the restaurant's general manager. 

According to Giordano and other employees the bar and grill has sold to the owners of Lily Flanagans Pub in Babylon, and the owners will be conducting renovations to the building once it clears out on Sunday. Giordano did not know how much the restaurant sold for. The sale was negotiated between the owner, Herb Bruno, and a principal owner at Lily Flanagans Pub.

Giordano said that Bruno is currently living in Florida and was seeking to get out of the restaurant business. He could not confirm the status of the employees at Brunos and whether or not they would continue on as Lily Flanagan employees. 

Calls to the Babylon location were not immediately returned. The Lily Flanagan's pub/restaurant in Islip told Patch they are not affiliated with the sale or the Babylon brand.
