A long-operating business in the South Bay's Blossom Hill neighborhood that plans to close next spring is already drawing fans who want to enjoy the greasy spoon's burgers as many times as possible before the end.
SAN JOSE â For five decades, Paul Berger has been frying up patties at the Burger Pit. His dad started up the original Burger Pit in 1953. They've been keeping the grill hot at the Blossom Hill Road location since 1964.But the still popular business will be closing up shop in April of next year. 'My landlord has decided not to renew the lease,' Berger said. 'I'm going to miss it.'Berger thinks the real estate will likely be turned into some sort of new development.
'I've probably been coming here for 35 years,' said regular David Wright. 'You get a warm greeting, good food. It's unfortunate. You feel like it's an era coming to an end.'It's not just burgers they're ordering. The Burger Pit's memorial coffee cups are one of the hottest items on the menu. I sold 288 of them and order for at least another 12 dozen from people who want them already,' said Berger.
