Earlier this week Bassett’s Fine Food & Spirits in Poolesville (19950 Fisher Ave) announced on its social media that the restaurant will be closing permanently on December 31.
On December 30, Bassett’s will be hosting a farewell drive-in movie night with two showings of Home Alone (5:30 & 7:45) and tickets for the event are $40 per car. Details below:
Bassett’s wants one more night with you, Poolesville & Montgomery County. Doing what we do best: coming together like a family ♥️ Come support us one last time!
For our last event ever, we thought a movie night would best be fit.
Bassett’s is a landmark in Poolesville, a real hidden jewel and everyone is so sad to see it close. This is your chance to come, support the staff, servers, cooks, bartenders and the owners.
There will be two showings of Home Alone, a Holiday Classic! (Most Voted Film by the Town Members via Facebook!) A true family movie!
The first showing at 5:30pm (cars admitted at 5:00pm)
Second Showing at 7:45pm (cars admitted at 7:30pm)
There is a limited number of parking spots in both events. All previous events were sold out, so do not wait and get your tickets ASAP.
The whole town will be there to take photos, enjoy the delicious food and special alcoholic drinks that will be sold!
Say farewell to 2021 and to Bassett’s in a safe, social distancing event from the comfort of your car.
Let us know if you have a birthday that week, there will be a surprise for you!
There is a line of people who want to speak on the loudspeaker, if you want to say something to Bassett’s owners and staff, let us know also, we’ll make it happen!
See you on the 30th!
