Cloquet’s Northeast Bar & Grill calls it quits

The Northeast Bar & Grill, also known as NE BBQ & Smokehouse, formally announced its closure on Facebook today. The last day of business was Oct. 12.

“We so loved our patrons and are so very sad to end the business that we loved so well,” part of the message read. “Unfortunately, we are receiving more inquiries now than we ever did while in business. That said: If you love a place, support it and patronize often. We have several surviving businesses in town that need that type of support.”

The Southern-style restaurant, owned by Elise Hermann, opened July 27, 2017.

Should another bar/restaurant choose to locate in the historic building at 7 Eighth St., it will inherit the Northeast’s mural of Minnesota rock stars.
