Iconic Rochester Restaurant is Closed But Still Serving Food
I literally cried when I heard Roscoes was closing. It was a summer go-to spot for my family. We would bike there and go to town on the incredible porkachos. I would definitely rank it in the top 5 best restaurants in Rochester. They closed at the end of the season last year, and are currently using their lot for downtown parking. They still cater, BUT you can also stuff your face with the BBQ goodness at Thursdays on First & Third every week!
When I saw the tent, I literally jumped for joy and ordered a plate of porkachos IMMEDIATELY. You guys, did you hear me?! You can get Roscoes at Thursdays on First - Hallelujah!!
It was a perfect day to kick-off the summer festival. Thousands of people filled the streets in downtown Rochester. To see all the bands that will be performing at TOF, click here.
