Iconic Laf-A-Lot reopens on Loon Lake after massive rebuild in Wayland
Everyone is smiling again at the Laf-A-Lot. An iconic Steuben County lakeside bar and restaurant reopened recently after a complete rebuild by its new owners. The Laf -A-Lot on Loon Lake is "pouring beers once again," Chuck Cavallaro posted Nov. 2 on the "What's going on around Wayland" Facebook page. The bar's signature cocktail, the Blue Whale, is presumably being mixed and poured again, too. The Laf-A-Lot had been closed since December 2025. Former owners Ed and Paula Kauffman sold the 100 Laf A Lot Road business to Chuck Cavallaro and his wife, Joanne Cavallaro, in March 2026. The couple, along with family members and even many of Cavallaros' neighbors on Loon Lake, immediately got to work restoring the existing bar and restaurant. “The next day (after the sale closed) I was at the bar with a crowbar and a hammer, and we started taking stuff apart," Chuck Cavallaro, a semi-retired medical doctor, told The Evening Tribune last spring.

Adam Weitsman plans new restaurant at former Metro's in Tioga County
On a late October day, the former Metro's Restaurant and Bar just outside Owego stands empty, engulfed by a backdrop of seemingly endless red, yellow and orange leaves that mark a classic Southern Tier fall. The restaurant on state Route 96, which closed in 2025, had been a mainstay for decades. For one local resident, seeing the empty eatery — a landmark of his childhood — languish was unacceptable. In September, Adam Weitsman, owner of Upstate Shredding - Weitsman Recycling, acquired the property, and he plans to bring the location back to life with a new restaurant. The cuisine will change — Weitsman said the new restaurant likely won't serve Italian fare — but the site's iconic mini golf course will be renovated and reopened to the public. Local entrepreneur to open new restaurant at former Metro's site According to Weitsman, keeping the location active and present is critical for the Owego community, which he said looked to Metro’s as a go-to for special events, birthdays and affordable weeknight meals.
