Foxwoods Resort And Casino Experiencing Major Changes With Store Closures And New Openings MASHANTUCKET, CT — Foxwoods Resort And Casino, along with the adjacent Tanger Outlets mall, is undergoing significant changes as several long-standing businesses prepare to close while new additions take shape. The transformation is reshaping the resort’s retail and dining offerings, with both closures and openings announced in recent weeks. Among the businesses set to close is Eddie Bauer, a national outdoor gear retailer, which is shuttering all its locations following a bankruptcy filing. The Tanger Outlets branch is among the affected stores. Similarly, Francesca’s, a women’s clothing and accessories chain, is closing its Connecticut locations, including its boutique at Tanger Outlets. Both closures are part of broader national exits for these brands. Other local closures include Lick Candy Store and Carina’s Women’s Boutique, both located in the Fox Tower. These businesses are offering steep discounts as they prepare to shut down. Polo Ralph Lauren at Tanger Outlets will also close its doors on March 20, though its Clinton store will remain open. Despite these departures, the resort is welcoming several new establishments. One of the most anticipated is The Bedford by Martha Stewart, a restaurant opening in the Grand Pequot Tower. Named after Stewart’s 1925 farmhouse in Bedford, New York, the eatery will feature a design inspired by the historic property. This marks Stewart’s second restaurant, following a successful location at Paris Las Vegas in 2022. Another high-profile addition is Yamashiro, a Japanese-inspired restaurant bringing “over a century of Hollywood history” to the resort. The establishment is set to open alongside the new dining options.#martha_stewart #foxwoods_resort_and_casino #tanger_outlets #eddie_bauer #francesca_s
