Staff Reports Print Story | Email Story
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The owners of A-oK Berkshire Barbeque announced that they plan to shut up shop after May 2.
 
"This decision did not come easily. We have loved every second here. There are too many memories to mention as all of them were so much a part of our adventure on this campus and in this community," owners Aaron and Alexandra Oster wrote on Facebook on Wednesday.
 
The Osters and Orion Howard, owner of Bright Ideas Brewery, opened the barbecue in 2018 in the former Sprague Electric guardhouse on the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Arts campus.
 
The Osters continued in their post that there will be one last "Racks &Stacks" party on May 1 starting at 3 p.m. 
 
Bright Ideas will help see A-oK out with live music from 1 to 3 p.m.
 
The Osters did not indicate what was next for them but noted they planned to stay in the Berkshires.
 
"Alex and I can't speak as to what will come next for us, but we know we're staying in the Berkshires and hope to be able to share our passion with all y'all again soon."
