RUMOR: Thistle Hill Tavern Part Deux?

IMAGE VIA PARK SLOPE LENS

Well, well, well.

It seems as though one of our fave Park Slope restaurants, Thistle Hill Tavern, is opening up a second location! (cue dancing in the streets, helium balloons, and vuvuzelas).

We received a tip from a FIPS reader that the space on the corner of 11th Street and 7th Ave is being developed into a restaurant space. After some chatting up of a friendly construction worker, it was revealed that this restaurant was actually being built-out by the Thistle Hill Tavern owners.

JACKPOT!

We reached out to the restaurant to get some scoop on this rumor, and here's what we heard back from General Manager David Massoni:

Right now I cannot confirm or deny that rumor.

But if it is true...it's going to be totally different from THT.

Ok, so it IS true! Cause everyone knows that not denying a rumor means RUMOR = CONFIRMED! I mean PROBABLY! Right?

Wonder what the focus of the new spot is going to be? Milkshake restaurant? Fried chicken joint? I hope its not "small plates"...I wish that fucking trend would die already.

Anyway, we're psyched.
