Comings & Goings: Swanky Frank’s Out, New Pub In

Swanky Frank’s has closed at 1050 Post Road East and a new pub will open in its place in the fall. Kevin McHugh and Scott Beck who collectively co-own six restaurants in Fairfield County (including Spotted Horse in Westport, Gray Goose and The Chelsea in Fairfield) have signed a long term lease for the location, Beck said. McHugh, who was the original co-owner and designer of The Little Pub in Ridgefield, plans to create a similar casual themed pub for lower Fairfield County area. Plans are being drafted and an open date is being targeted for the fall, Beck said. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
