Drew Friedman died Saturday.
Barely 48 hours later, Cobb’s Mill Inn — the Weston restaurant he owned — was closed.
The Weston Forum reports that someone locked the doors at 3 p.m.
That’s bad news for fans of Weston’s only full-service restaurant.
It’s even worse news for at least one bride-to-be, who already put down a hefty deposit. She was told Cobb’s Mill would reopen “in a week after the funeral.”
She is not sure she can take that to the bank.
Services for Friedman — a founder of the Westport Downtown Merchants Association and longtime local commercial landowner — will be held at 11 a.m. on Thursday (March 3) at Weston’s St. Francis of Assisi Church. Burial will follow at 4 p.m. at Beth Israel cemetery in Norwalk.
