"After a wave of concern that the late-night haven was set to close, the bar’s future is less than clear. Buffa’s, an 80+-year-old dive bar, live music venue, and late-night haven responded to a Facebook follower’s question about closing. The post prompted a slew of reactions mourning the ongoing loss of the city’s late-night culture. Despite the rumors, Buffa’s remains open, presumably due to increased sales and other measures of support from its customer base. The bar’s lineup of local musicians had volunteered to play for free, and a GoFundMe was set up to support the bar. Buffa’s has new summer hours and continues to offer live shows, events, beer tastings, and its menu including a late-night burger and homemade cheesecake." - Clair Lorell
