Dunkin Donuts Opening, BBQ Closes In Hatboro

HATBORO, PA — Dunkin' Donuts is coming to the borough.

Anyone who has driven by the stretch of South York Road has seen the transformation of the TD Bank property into the popular coffee chain.

Barth Consulting Group, brought on to promote Hatboro's downtown revitalization and economic development, has now made it official.

The repurposed former bank building continues redevelopment efforts that have recently brought two new luxury apartment complexes and several new eateries to the borough.

But one new eatery didn't last too long.

Castorina's Chili Bar and BBQ has closed after just opening a few months ago.

Tables and chairs for patrons at the front of the business are gone and there's a sign on a window to rent the space.

The restaurant had open in February and drew raves for its menu of ribs, sandwiches, mac and cheese, and chili.

The closure caught several people on Hatboro Facebook community pages off guard for the fast exist.

No reason has been given for the closure.
