(East Rochester, PA) The Beaver County Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon cutting at 9:45 a.m. to celebrate the reopening of the Long John Silver’s seafood quick-service restaurant at 750 Ohio River Boulevard in East Rochester.

This restaurant is open from Sundays through Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. and Fridays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. to midnight.

It was rebuilt at its original location from the ground up and it offers a setting for guests to enjoy the favorite meals that they love with chicken and seafood that is updated, which includes batter-dipped fish, chicken, hushpuppies, grilled salmon, shrimp, shrimp tacos and more.

It features a coastal-inspired interior that is along with digital menu boards, kiosks for self-order, and an updated layout which still includes seaworthy seating and ordering options that are personalized.

These enhancements create an environment that is more welcoming while supporting carryout, dine-in and mobile orders.

Some representatives from the County Chamber of Commerce were present at the event, including its president, Lance Grabel.

Grabel commented about what the reopening of the restaurant means for Beaver County by saying: “I think it means that a restaurant that has been a staple of East Rochester for years and years and years, is back, refreshed, reopened, and ready to go, and I think it is spectacular for Beaver County. It just shows the support of community and organizations that wanna come in and be a part of Beaver County.

The employees of the establishment were also present, including Susan Staub, who is the District Manager of the East Rochester Long John Silver’s restaurant.

Staub shared her thoughts about what the reopening of the restaurant means for Beaver County and she thought about the process that it took for the restaurant to reopen again.

Staub stated: “We ended badly, as at the old store. It was hard. This gives Long John Silver’s a chance at rebirth, with a new store, new people; get everything that they need to get done done. We didn’t have enough employees, like a month before we closed. So, it’s our chance to make it up to Beaver County.”
