The Announcement 📢

We’re excited to finally announce some plans for growth and expansion coming soon.

As you know, our friend and neighbor at Candy Craze outgrew her space next to us, and will soon reopen at 129 W Columbus Ave. We’re excited for her, but also sad to see her go. The silver lining to her move is this provided a natural growth opportunity for us. So, in June of this year, we came to an agreement with the Johnson Family to acquire the on-premise liquor permits from The Pink House, a long-standing institution in Bellefontaine. Transferring these permits, and expanding to occupy both 120 and 122 West Chillicothe Ave will allow us to not only offer beverages for carry-out, but also to serve onsite, as well as serve for DORA. The expanded pub area will be small (only a couple dozen seats), but will offer seating, TV’s, and a draft beer system in addition to the hundreds of beverages that can be “instantly-chilled” and enjoyed from the bottle shop.
Work has already started on this expansion, and progress to completion will be fast. Inspections and approval from local and state authorities will ultimately determine the timeline for opening, but we’re optimistic this can be ready in the next few weeks.

Additionally, this expansion will require some added part-time help. If you or someone you know has bartending experience and would like to pick up some weekend/evening hours, please feel free to private message us through our Facebook or Instagram pages.

Small business is extremely fragile, and we’re humbled and grateful for the incredible support you all have given us over the past 22 months. Being in a position to grow and expand is a privilege YOU have afforded us, and we’ll continue to work tirelessly to provide you the best experience we can. Thank you, and please stay tuned!

Cheers 🍻
