Palm Pavilion is being taken over by new ownership
\n
The Hamilton family has run the restaurant since 1964
\n
Dozens of patrons spent Sunday at Palm Pavilion and thanked the current owners<\/p>\n
However, that birthday will be under new ownership.<\/p>\n
Sunday is the last day the current owners will be running the bar and grill.<\/p>\n
Dustin Denunzio said Palm Pavilion has been one of his favorite places in the area for a long time.<\/p>\n
\u201cHistory in Florida is not that deep compared to New York or Boston, and some of these other cities,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is as historic as it gets.\u201d<\/p>\n
Co-owner Hoyt Hamilton said his family has owned the place since 1964, but it\u2019s been going strong since 1926.<\/p>\n
He said there are a lot of emotions when moving on from a place he and his siblings have spent so much time running, but added that now is the right time for them to move on.<\/p>\n
\u201cI hope the people of Clearwater and from all over the world that have come here understand and remember us. Thank you so much,\u201d Hamilton said.<\/p>\n
Beachside Hospitality Group will be the new owner.<\/p>\n
The restaurant will be closed for a few days while the group makes a few changes.<\/p>\n
According to the Tampa Bay Times, the company has 15 different restaurants across the state, including three in the Tampa Bay area.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CLEARWATER, Fla. \u2014\u00a0Palm Pavilion in Clearwater Beach is just a few months away from celebrating 100 years.
