Oleander Bar And Grill

What happened after

Closed; NY State Dept of Health marks the food-service license inactive after Aug 2013 inspection.

Closure date on record: 2013

What happened on the show

The fourth season brought Irvine to Oleander Bar And Grill, a bar and grill in Olean, on East State Street. Almost nothing of the Oleander Bar And Grill episode is documented in Olean, and Wikipedia offers no summary to lean on. So at Oleander Bar And Grill the fixed rescue applied: Irvine tastes the pub fare, works the Olean kitchen, confronts the owners, and rebuilds the Olean room across two days on a small budget. No fabricated Oleander Bar And Grill scene fills the record's gaps, and Olean sources offer nothing concrete to build on. What survives as fact for Oleander Bar And Grill is the format and the Olean setting, with nothing invented added. Official New York state records, rather than any tracker, supply the closing that followed at this Olean bar and grill.

After the cameras left

The Oleander is closed. The New York State Department of Health marks its food-service license inactive following an August 2013 inspection, and a business listing carries a closed tag as well. An official inspection record plus the directory tag put the closure at high confidence, and we relied on those rather than the reality-show trackers we do not cite. A bar and grill that could not sustain its television rescue lost its state license within about a year, and the East State Street location went dark.
