The Star Drive-In will remain open after lease extension

The popular Taunton drive-in restaurant that planned on closing its doors for good later this month will instead remain open for the time being.

 

The Star Drive-In announced in a social media post Saturday that the property manager, SouthCoast Development, has agreed to extend the restaurant’s existing lease until June 30.

 

“There is still much work to be done in the next 90 days,” wrote Erika Madden, owner of the 1964-era restaurant. “I can happily say we are diligently working to stay open.”

 

Madden, who first bought the Star Drive-In back in 2016, also noted that the restaurant now has a signed Purchase and Sales Agreement for the property.
