That makes me hopeful. Sounds like they open too late to get the fall special releases but they know they exist which isn't always the case with "bourbon" themed bars or restaurants

Ahh.. Grandy's......the days of double chicken fried steak platters and their breakfast biscuits. I had forgotten that used to be there. Makes sense.

Gringo's - South College Station
Glad to see this is still on the list...I hadn't seen anything on it for quite some time.

I hope it goes through. It would be nice to have a good Tex-Mex option in South College Station. Most of the places in B/CS are pretty overrated anyway.



Rumor is that the Gringos will now be a Casa Ole in South College Station. Kids love Casa Ole!

Site plans submitted to Bryan for Canyon Creek Entertainment. What is that?
It is a really bad name for a subdivision.

BACKGROUND: The subject property is 7.76 acres in size, currently vacant, and adjoins the southwest side of North Earl Rudder Freeway between East Martin Luther King Junior Street and Water Locust Drive. The property owner, Bobby Miksch of Joseph-Robert Holdings, LLC, is proposing to replat Lot 1 in Block 1 of the Canyon Creek Entertainment Subdivision, to create two new lots, Lot 1R and Lot 3, proposed to be 1.302 acres and 6.453 acres in size, respectively. A 24-foot wide joint access easement is proposed to be dedicated along the front (Highway 6 Frontage Road) side of the property. The easement extends thought the center of the property to the west so that future development in the Canyon Creek Entertainment Subdivision will have access to State Highway 6

It's not really a "subdivision" in the residential subdivision type, my guess (which is what usually happens) is that a company doing business as Canyon Creek Entertainment filed for a subdivision plat but then pulled out before the company was ever built. It's the same reason why defunct businesses still have official subdivision names on the city rolls (Pooh's Park Subdivision, Randalls University Park).

Thanks - It looked like it might be residential lots, so I was thrown off by the name. Thanks for the background - good info.

I haven't seen any plans yet, but it sounds like Grace Bible Church is planning something on a plot of property right in front of Williams Creek subdivision on WD Fitch. Anyone else know their plans? Seems like an odd location.

Aren't they already meeting at Pebble Creek Elementary on Sundays?

The "Creekside" campus is meeting at Pebble Creek until they build a permanent building. I think Williams Creek is where the permanent building will be built.

My guess is this will be a future location en lieu of Pebble Creek.

Looks like within the past few days the Aerofit on Longmire has rebranded to Tru Fit (officially), though the sign closest to the road still says Aerofit.

I've been there several times. They opened either early last year or 2016. It is good. Good quality and price.

They just celebrated their one year anniversary. We love it. Family owned and operated

Agreed, Taco Crave is good and very under-mentioned/rated. I had been enjoying the free alcohol there for most of last year while they were waiting on their permit.

It's difficult to find an "official" list, but here are the ones that Business Insider has heard of today:

Article says the affected stores have been removed from the website. CS Sam's is still listed.

I heard rumblings of a potential grocery store at University and Boonville. That has been months and I don't think anything has materialized, so wrote if off.

I have updated the front page, let me know if I have missed anything. I also added the grocery store rumor for Boonville and University Drive. I have also heard this rumor. I believe that area is reserved as retail before you enter into the new Oakmont neighborhood development. Does anyone know the current status of the Oakmont neighborhood development?

Smoothie King on Rock Prairie and east side of 6(behind Valero station and in front of S & W Hospital) is now open. They do have a drive thru.

Cherry Blowout Bar is opening at Rock Prairie and 6 next to Honey Baked Ham. Now I know it's a salon but a first I was wondering how a tire shop was going to be in that shopping strip!

Was pleased to find out today that Mad Taco now has a Saturday and Sunday brunch menu at both locations from 9:30 to 2:00, with an extensive menu ranging from breakfast enchiladas to a variety of breakfast taco options. Didn't take a long look at the menu, but I also seem to remember quite a few different brunch beverages. This is something that has been sorely missing on the South end of town for quite some time now.

Gotta add a +1 to all the thumbs up for Blake's Steaks! Had lunch there on Friday and it was awesome! Got the OG with grilled onions and it was the best cheese steak I've ever had. 8.99 but lots of meat and toppings; super fresh bread. Fries were 3.99 but there were enough for 3-4 people.

Is the new Whataburger open at SW Pkwy and Wellborn? I drove by yesterday and it looked like the parking lot was full

So I have driven by The Angry Elephant the past few nights wondering if it is open. I assumed it was due to all the vehicles in the parking lot. Hard to tell with no open sign in window and blacked out windows. Now that I know they are open, I will visit.

Yes it is open we went last night. I had the Ben Franklin which is a hot dog with philly cheese steak on top of it. It was great but the home made chips were hit or miss some were chewy. They have a really impressive bourbon selection I had a glass of Blanton's which was exceptional as well.

It is a pretty small place I would say 30 ish seats or so. Cost was reasonable about $9 per dog with chips included.
