Old is new again as Danish Athletic Club re-launches eatery
Rejuvenation is the word to describe the new Danish Athletic Club (DAC). On September 3, the venerable institution re-launched its restaurant, in hopes of expanding and improving the long-standing Brooklyn fixture.
Recently, the club, at 735-42 65th Street, was rumored to be closing due to financial trouble and only served a limited menu of food three days a week. Now with a robust menu and plans to renovate the space in short order, all is about to change for the former soccer club, according to Anne Mette Wismann, the club’s president.
“Today is a reawakening and discovery of the importance of the club to Bay Ridge,” she said. “So many people have had a lot of memories of gatherings and celebrations here.”
