BUSHWICK — Neighborhood haunts including a boutique lunch spot and a DIY punk venue will close their doors in the coming weeks, according to the two businesses' social media accounts. 

Fritzl's Lunch Box, at 173 Irving Ave., captured the hamburger-hungry hearts of Bushwick residents and earned nods from critiques with its beer-battered broccoli and salsa brined chicken wings, will sizzle up its last burgers on June 28.

"After 3 plus years and almost 40k burgers it is time to say 'goodbye,'" the restaurant wrote on Instagram.

"Huge thanks to everyone for their support, and I look forward to seeing everyone over the next couple of weeks as we wind this adventure down."

Eater first reported the closure. Workers at Fritzl's couldn't immediately be reached for further comment.

The DIY punk venue The Acheron in East Williamsburg at 57 Waterbury St. will also close. Its last show will be on June 9.

The Acheron's Facebook page saw an outpouring from saddened fans following the announcement.
