The Republican congresswoman was told by the new landlord that her lease wasn’t going to be renewed.




RIFLE, Colo. — For years, Downtown Rifle’s restaurant scene was furnished with one of the only places in the U.S. you could order a cheeseburger from a server packing a 9mm pistol on her hip. The establishment — Shooters Grill — was the brainchild of now-U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo.

On Sunday, the Silt Republican officially closed the doors to her restaurant.

“We were like a family,” she said. “I would say Shooters, for any employee, was their life. We lived and breathed it every single day. They were a part of this culture and brand that we created in Rifle, and there was a lot of pride with that.”

In June, Boebert was told by new landlord Milken Enterprises that her lease wasn’t going to be renewed.

Boebert said the letter came as a shock. She soon called the landlord but “there wasn’t really much wiggle room or anywhere to compromise unless we bought the building ourselves.”

Ate there once, food was pretty good, my waitress had a Glock. Went out of my way to go there.

New landlord is a dick.

I don't see how this is political?  The business that is at the same address bought the building a month ago and wants to expand to have the whole building.  It's their property.

Guess OP can’t search.  

What made you think there wouldn’t already be a thread on this

Well shit.  I wanted to go eat there and never got the chance.

I would have made a special trip if I'd known it was going to close instead of waiting until I was in the area on business.

Does the renter have to pay to remove everything?
Probably an obvious yes but it seems like easily a $10,000.00 bill clearing out a restaurant.
Maybe more?
