"Framebar, the Hazel Park bar and pop-up venue closed permanently two weeks after an Eater Detroit article revealed concerns over its business practices with local pop-up operators. Owner Joe Vaughn told Eater that a new chef and concept would be taking its place, though no further announcements have been made." - Serena Maria Daniels
"Framebar has closed following criticism from the Detroit pop-up community over its business practices. Many chefs expressed concerns about profit splits that made it difficult for them to benefit. Since rebranding in 2021, Framebar aimed to provide a restaurant incubation experience, but issues with cost-sharing led to its temporary closure." - Serena Maria Daniels
"Framebar is a restaurant that collaborates with pop-up chefs, offering a platform for young businesses to test their menus. However, disputes have arisen over the profit-sharing model, with some chefs feeling that the terms make it difficult to profit." - Serena Maria Daniels
"The always transforming FrameBAR will continue its evolution this holiday season with Transylvanian Christmas taking place December 15 and 16." - Serena Maria Daniels
"GERMANbar at FRAMEbar is bringing a refined but approachable take on the cultural celebration. Chef Michael Barrera is serving dishes of currywurst and wiener-schnitzel to pair alongside sommelier Diego Aliste’s favorite German wines from importer Vom Boden’s catalog. Other traditional favorites on the menu include käespätzel, kartoffelpuffer (potato pancakes), and apple strudel. Tickets are available for the Sept. 14 and 15 celebration. Lederhosen is optional." - Courtney Burk
