The owners of the Portland Hunt and Alpine Club, a popular craft cocktail stop that serves Scandinavian fare, have purchased the former West End home of Vespucci’s Market at 211 Danforth St.

Although details are scant, the Bangor Daily News reported that the former Italian market that also sold handmade sandwiches, pizza and lasagna, will get a new lease on life as a full restaurant, bar and general store.

The store is slated to open later this year, according to the BDN, while the restaurant and bar will open in early 2017.

“We don’t have much more to share at this time. We are waiting to announce our name/concept when our branding is completed and we open the shop,” Briana Volk, who along with her husband Andrew and partners Ian and Kate Malin will open the new West End establishment, wrote in an email to the BDN.
