BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — Zingo's Cafe on Buck Owens Blvd is closing its doors. But never fear, it will be re-opening with the same name but a different owner.

The owner of the building, Mike Banducci, told 23ABC that the current restaurant owner Lindy Humphrey was stepping down as owner and a new owner will be taking over.

Banducci said that the Zingo's Cafe would temporarily close on March 12 and remain closed for about 45 days as the new owner upgrades the business.

The business is expected to re-open under the Zingo's Cafe name on April 31 or May 1. A final date has not been determined.
