It’s the news Westport has waited for: Elvira’s is back.
The popular Old Mill deli/grocery store/community center was closed all winter. It’s the first well-deserved rest the Yiovanakos family owners have taken in 20 years.
But at 7 a.m. on Monday, they’ll again greet their regulars: commuters, kids waiting for the school bus, construction workers, delivery people, joggers, bikers, and everyone else who lives, works in or passes through the neighborhood.
Nicky and Stacey at their familiar spot. The counter displays photos of some of Elvira’s many young customers.
“We missed everyone!” co-owner Stacey says.
“We’re ready to rock and roll for the season,” Nicky adds.
It’s all back: coffee, salads, sandwiches, pizza, and Elvira’s beloved bacon-egg-and-cheese.
And all is once again right with the world.
