THUNDER BAY – A longtime Victoriaville Centre restaurant is shutting its kitchen down.

Crock-N-Dial Sandwiches announced on social media that after 28 years in business, the eatery’s last day will be on New Year’s Eve.

“This decision came as a result of the notice issued by the City of Thunder Bay moving forward with the south-side rejuvenation plans,’ said owner Kathy Scerba in the social media post.

“Throughout the years, it has been our privilege to serve you and be a part of this wonderful community. The relationships we have built and the experiences we have shared have made this journey truly remarkable. Although it saddens us to conclude this chapter, we are grateful for the support you have show us over the years.”

Scerba said Skip the Dishes availability may end at an earlier date, and promised further updates on the restaurant’s Facebook page.

Preparations are already underway and the demolition of Victoriaville is expected to take place in early 2025.
