A once-thriving, locally owned restaurant chain is now down to just one location and none in metro Detroit. Today is the last day of operation for the Bobcat Bonnie’s location in Ferndale. Owner Matt Buskard announced the closing in a Sunday night social media post. Buskard did not state a reason for the closure, but his business has been dwindling over the last year or so with Ferndale becoming the fifth Bobcat Bonnie’s to close since last summer.

A popular, independently owned Detroit pizzeria is expanding to the suburbs. Supino Pizzeria owner Dave Mancini plans to open a new restaurant early next year in the Market Fresh-anchored shopping center at 13 Mile and Southfield roads in Beverly Hills. The project is a full build-out of a nearly 3,600-square-foot space on the north end of the complex, according to city documents. The Beverly Hills Supino would be Mancini’s third restaurant.
