It had become a favorite for Delaware Countians seeking South American cuisine with a Venezuelan flair.
Unfortunately, The Porch Ohio has found it necessary to close its doors at 5808 Columbu Pike recently after examining options for staying open. In a statement on Facebook, owners shared:
“After several weeks reviewing all possible scenarios or alternatives, we have the sad news that “The Porch” will close its doors. We opened just with the start of a pandemic and the effects are still being felt, it has been almost 3 years of constant challenges but in which we have learned and above all we have met wonderful people. People who had never tried Venezuelan food and who now identify with arepas, patacones, empanadas and other delicacies. We are honored to have had the opportunity to show you a little piece of our beloved land.”
According to the restaurant’s website, however, a new “take and bake” option will be available beginning on October 1. As they share,
“We know how important time is, and we want you to enjoy it to the fullest, doing what you like, but above all, eating what you love.
By visiting our website you will find a variety of Kits, each one designed to give you a unique experience through typical Venezuelan food. Your order will arrive the next business day “Ready to Heat … Ready to Eat.” This will allow you to enjoy your meal at the time you want, in the comfort of your home or wherever you need it.
Kits can now be seen on the website, which can be accessed here.
