Don't kid yourself, there may well be enough gluten free, vegan yobs around to keep hopdoddy's hoppin.


In fairness, that is the only hipsterburger on the menu. There are plenty of red blooded 'Merica options for us to avail ourselves of.

No. There is an ahi tuna burger, and a kale salad...both high on the hipster food chain. The notion that all hipsters are vegans is fantastically silly, and simply not true.

Have they set an opening date? I saw Hopdoddys cut their ribbon this morning.

Not sure if this appeared earlier, but I heard Neighbor's ED is closing.

Also, it looked like Physician's Premier ED was open when I went to the movie theater the other day.

When one of them closes, three more pop up to take its place.

Wow! First tenant of Century Square and it's already gone. Ah well, would rather see something better there anyway. Speaking of Century Square, Tiff's Treats is opening 8/26 [https://www.cookiedelivery.com/Company/About/New-Store-Openings.aspx].

I'm not sure that I'd take an unverified statement on this board of a business closing at face value, considering it's past reputation of accuracy of speculations.

The Tiff's Treat opening event looks pretty neat and for a great cause! Plus there will be a puppy there!

?? Who was the second? Unless I missed one, you were the first, a statement of "I heard", which I'd take as unverified unless you reveal a reliable source. PS3D quoted/ replied to your statement, so not really a statement, but more of a reaction.

This board has more than once claimed that a business was closing or closed when no such thing had occurred, based on random speculation, gossip channels, finding a locked door when the owner was on vacation, etc.. I simply thought it prudent to provide some sort of evidence or backing to a statement beyond an "I heard". That is all.

Go look online. They are closing most if not all stores. This isnt a college station issue...this is a company grew too fast issue.

The wooded corner of 2818 and West Villa Maria will be getting a grocery store in addition to a few other things mentioned awhile back including a gas station. The grocery store will be a German based grocer known as Lidl. The building will be 36,000 sf, with a brick and glass exterior.


Another new project on the far West side of Bryan is The Ranch at Riverside. The development is nice, but that side near the creek was so nice that it should have been developed into a river-walk type of development or something like the Woodlands Waterway.

I do not work for the City of Bryan, but I wouldn't mind working for either the COB or the CoCS.

I read the site development review every week, that is how I know.

Here are the site plans for the new Bryan Lidl:

Is the Bistro in downtown Bryan a new place, or just Molly's re-opening under a new name?

Same owner - new name, different menu, alcohol instead of ice cream.

I thought Lidl would be on par with Aldi, but it is said to be more of a cross between a Trader Joes and a Whole Foods.

In Europe you do have to pay, but here in the States carts are free unlike Aldi. [url=https://www.bizjournals.com/triad/news/2017/06/09/a-few-ways-the-first-triad-lidl-will-differ-from.html][/url]

I know that it has been a long time, but I have updated the front page. If any of you have time, please look over it and tell me what is missing or needs to move. Thank you.

Definitely intriguing as far as development goes. Not too long ago, they approved an Americas Best Value Inn behind O'Reilly's Auto Parts. But the extension of Dartmouth means that there will probably be ANOTHER stoplight there, which is aggravating. Some better planning years before (or some hard choices now) could've given a viable 4-lane alternative to Texas Avenue or the highway, and I'd be happier with a stoplight there if there was a road that went straight to University Drive without lanes disappearing, low speed limits, back roads, and jogging on perpendicular streets.

Casa do Brasil is coming soon to Caprock Crossing in College Station. I didn't see it on the list.

Should there be a category for recently moved?

  • Remnant of Nawlins to the old Butler's location
  • Fargo's to the old Barnhill Buffet location

My dentist recently moved too
  • Scasta Family Dentistry from Barack Lane in Bryan to Copperfield Parkway. He's now sharing space with his wife, who is an optometrist.
