Change is once again happening on 1st Avenue in downtown Rochester, Minnesota.  If you missed the latest news, a brand new restaurant is moving into the old Dooley's location.

Wait?!  Wasn't there already a restaurant in the old Dooley's location in Rochester?

If you were thinking that another restaurant had already opened in the old Dooley's spot, you are correct.  After some major renovations, The Well Dining opened at 255 1st. Ave. SW in February 2023.  Unfortunately, that restaurant closed in December 2023 and the spot transitioned into an event space.
