As The Terrace Times reported back in February, the restaurant at Frear Park is in for major upgrades.
Now, Mayor Carmella Mantello has announced that in the meantime a new, temporary restaurant and lounge will be created at the city-owned facility during the park's "Transformation Revitalization Project."
"The establishment will be operated by Troy native Brad Stevens, a longtime hospitality professional with deep roots in the city," the mayor said in a news release. "The owner of the former Park Pub Restaurant, Mark Miron, will be the sublessor. Under the new sublease agreement, the restaurant and lounge will provide a welcoming space for everyone to enjoy quality food, beverages, and camaraderie."
Stevens said, “It’s great to be back in Troy, a city that has always meant so much to me. Troy is a prime destination for investment and growth, and I’m excited to bring new energy to Frear Park with this project. We’re looking forward to offering great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and, of course, keeping the famous peanut butter and jelly wings on the menu.”
The temporary restaurant and lounge is expected to open in time for the upcoming golf season. The grand opening and menu offerings will be announced soon, as will details of the full transformation.
Stevens is best known for his B-Rad's Catering operation, which over the years has covered such efforts as
two B-rad’s Executive Bistro locations, two B-rad’s Bistro Express locations, the B-rad’s Mobile Bistro food truck, and the catering service that included private aviation catering and catering for the Saratoga Polo Association and Parti Events & Banquet Hall in the former Germania Hall in Troy's Lansingburgh neighborhood with his father, Mark Stevens.
