Rumors have been circulating this past week that Geno Auriemma would be taking over the Waterview Cafe at Manchester Country Club. In a first (and definitely not last!) collaboration with The Scoop Glastonbury, we now have confirmation that Auriemma will renovate and reopen the storied restaurant.
Geno Auriemma, a Manchester resident, will take over the Waterview Cafe with a new concept restaurant. Auriemma currently owned Geno Restaurant Group, which has restaurants at Mohegan Sun, and Cafe Aura in Manchester. Auriemma opened Cafe Aura in late 2019, right before COVID-19, Cafe Aura took over and beautifully renovated the legendary Cavey's restaurant on East Center Street. Auriemma's other restaurants in Storrs and Southington have both closed permanently in the past years. We will keep you updated as more details about the restaurant come available. |
