The site of The Ketch restaurant and bar will be reinvented as Bird and Betty’s, “a throwback to the exciting summer days and nights of the 1960s and 70s,” under new ownership.

The Tide Table Group, owners of Mud City Crab House, Ship Bottom Shellfish, Parker’s Garage & Oyster Saloon, the Black Whale Bar & Fish House, and the Old Causeway Steak & Oyster House, announced the acquisition of The Ketch restaurant and nightclub on Dock Road on Feb. 14.
