Schmidy’s Tavern in Palm Desert will soon shut its doors.

Owner Dennis Ford made the announcement on Facebook stating, in part:

As of April 1, 2016, Schmidy’s Tavern will be closing our doors for good.  We do not have a lease and have not had one for a year now. Our landlord wants to raise the rent 112 percent, and we simply cannot afford that. We have been paying 50 percent more for the past year, and it has taken its toll.

Dennis and wife Kathleen Ford purchased the bar in 2013.

Schmidy’s last day open will be March 31st.

What's on my mind??? Nothing good, that's for sure. Sorry but this is going to be a long post.As of April 1st 2016,…
