Toucans Oceanside Bar & Grill

What happened after

Renamed Bonny and Read's / Bonny & Read's Toucan Hideout after Bar Rescue (2014); Orlando Weekly retrospective (independent alt-weekly, secondary, capped medium) reports it 'ultimately shut down.' Directly-fetched findglocal.com business page (mirrors the venue's own Facebook page) shows a dated 06/27/2025 post liquidating 'Bonny and Read's and Toucan Oceanside memorabilia... all ready to go to a new owner who wants a piece of the past 29 years' -- a clear closure/wind-down signal from an independent, directly-verified, dated source.

Closure date on record: 2025 (approximate; memorabilia liquidation post dated 2025-06-27)

What happened on the show

A failing beachfront bar with a rodent problem became one of the more emotional rescues in the series when Taffer discovered what its owners had been through. Toucans Oceanside Bar and Grill in Hollywood, Florida, moved him to tears once the owners' story came out, and the episode marked a first: Taffer and his experts handled the recon themselves, the first occasion on which he personally handled a bar's recon personally. The rescue paired an operational fix, the pests, the failing business, with real compassion for the people running it, and reopened the room under a new pirate-themed identity, Bonny and Read's, named for a pair of famous women pirates. The bet was that a fresh concept and a cleaned-up room could give owners who had already endured so much a genuine second chance on the sand.

After the cameras left

Toucans, as Bonny and Read's, has since closed, around 2025. An Orlando Weekly retrospective reports it ultimately shut down, and a directly fetched FindGLocal page mirroring the venue's own Facebook shows a June 2025 post liquidating Bonny and Read's and Toucan Oceanside memorabilia, offering it to a new owner wanting a piece of the past 29 years, a clear wind-down signal. The bar's own domain is dead as well. Together these put the closure at medium confidence, the exact month approximate to mid-2025, the emotional rescue reaching a quiet end.
