GASTONIA, N.C. — The owners of an upscale whiskey and cigar lounge in South End have purchased a Gastonia business with expansion in mind.
Menagerie Hospitality Group, which owns The Vintage, recently bought Whiskgars Cigar & Co. at 190 W. Main Ave., according to a news release. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The initial plan calls for Menagerie to operate Whiskgars as is for the time being, with a mid-term goal of rebranding the space The Vintage Gastonia. Whiskgars staff will also remain on board.
