We went on a Friday night and had to park almost by Costco's front door. It was a decent night but if it had been raining, we would have gone elsewhere.<br /><br />My favorite eatery in TB is Olde Blind Dog Pub. I usually only go at lunch because it is almost impossible to find parking at night.Disneypalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17564104426996634705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-47685648545613084682014-07-29T16:19:44.029-04:002014-07-29T16:19:44.029-04:00Boarded up today, Tuesday.Boarded up today, Tuesday.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-85682053999011007612014-07-28T11:03:02.169-04:002014-07-28T11:03:02.169-04:00@Anon RE: closure,

Most mornings all spaces are gone by 11am with office employees, KW agents, renters, etc. Customers who want to get in/out will not put up with walking a few more spaces (even on a nice day). Only guys making it are the ones with alcohol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-20054052006576377802014-07-23T12:58:57.854-04:002014-07-23T12:58:57.854-04:00Town Brookhaven desperately needs a non-starbucks ...Town Brookhaven desperately needs a non-starbucks coffee shop.

I can't imagine seeing a movie there, parking in that garage in the very back and then having to fight through traffic to leave after a movie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-55148844113604305822014-07-23T10:50:56.875-04:002014-07-23T10:50:56.875-04:00Seems like Tom Catherall is a man with a thing for...Seems like Tom Catherall is a man with a thing for ampersands.

The issue with Town Brookhaven is the way they built the thing, which is still very car-centric, as opposed to ditching the car and walking around. The long corridors they built do not create an inviting environment for walking and since parking up in this stretch is sparse it would take a lot, like a Starbucks, for a restaurant to be successful in this particular location.

We still don't have a non-Starbucks coffee shop.<br /><br />It's not hard to figure out what should work in Brookhaven: local, community-oriented restaurants like Avellino's are doing very well. It's just that for whatever reason we continue to get generic, chainy concepts pushed in. Since there still aren't many other options nearby, and getting elsewhere at rush hour is tough, some will do okay, but people buying $600k+ new construction houses aren't looking to dine at Boneheads.Conornoreply@blogger.com
