The Fitch Brothers, from left Adam, Patrick and Jason, stand in Kings Tavern, which they are renovating and will soon open on Union Avenue, near Saratoga Race Course.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

By Liz Witbeck<\/p>\n

Kings Tavern, 241 Union Ave, Saratoga
\nSprings, across from Saratoga Race Course,
\nhas a new owner.
\nThe Fitch brothers–Jason, Patrick, and
\nAdam– recently purchased the bar. They
\nalso operate Saratoga City Tavern, a fivestory
\nbar at 19-21 Caroline St. in downtown
\nSaratoga Springs.<\/p>\n

Richard Bendon of Saratoga Springs had
\nowned and operated Kings Tavern for 40
\nyears before his death in 2008. The Bendon
\nfamily put the tavern on the real estate
\nmarket in 2013.<\/p>\n

Now the Fitches are expanding their
\ntavern business with Kings.
\nThe brothers have been working at a fast
\npace since the purchase in April to have the
\nbar ready for the summer.<\/p>\n

“We are fast tracking everything and
\nshooting for an opening date prior to track
\nseason,” the Fitches said.<\/p>\n

Since the closure of the tavern several
\nyears ago, the property had been in decline.
\nThe brothers are repairing both the fa\u00c3\u00a7ade
\nand interior of the building, which is 2,200
\nsquare feet. The inside will feature a horse
\ntheme to pay homage to their race track
\nneighbors.<\/p>\n

Kings Tavern will feature a large and
\nrotating lineup of draught beers, similar to
\nthose at Saratoga City Tavern. The tavern
\nwill have a menu of typical pub fare, including
\nburgers and sandwiches.For more
