A popular Hornell restaurant and bar has closed.

Club 57 shut down without much warning. According to the restaurant’s owner, a plan was in place for a Canandaigua resident who managed it to takeover.


However, that individual abruptly quit and was no longer interested in taking over.

Chuck Wochele, who owns the grill said the property has now been sold.

He’s uncertain about a timeline for future development there, but said a restaurant of some sort is likely.
