Salisbury’s majority owners, including Earl & Cheryl Barish, made the decision to sell their stake in the business earlier this year.

“It has been a great experience to lead such an important Winnipeg institution,” Earl Barish said in a statement. “Noel and his team are well positioned to take Salisbury House to its 100th Anniversary and beyond as Manitoba’s Family Restaurant.”

Salisbury House has 19 locations around Manitoba.
