The Mercantile Roof Top Bar & Restaurant, the current name for a planned rooftop bar and restaurant at the Mercantile Center in Worcester, is slated to open late this summer, according to a May newsletter from the Downtown Worcester Business Improvement District.

The Mercantile Roof Top Bar & Restaurant will be operated by Broadway Hospitality Group of Boston, the company behind the restaurant chain Tavern in the Square.

The restaurant is expected to be a two-story location with indoor and outdoor dining options and 500 seats.

Separately, the opening of the Ruth’s Chris Steak House, a Florida-based chain, in the Mercantile Center has been rescheduled from its original 2020 opening date to fall of 2022, with 275 seats, according to Downtown Worcester BID.

Last summer, a $4.2-million purchase-and-financing agreement was established between Webster Five Bank and 2 Mercantile LLC, a limited liability corporation owned by developer Charles “Chip” Norton, who owns the building. Before that, in December 2020, BHG entered a 15-year lease with Norton to operate a restaurant in the space.
