When is Gringos opening?

I haven't seen any work on Trudy's yet either. I went by there yesterday seeing if they'd let me sample a Mexican Martini and NOBODY was there. I'm thinking this was a bad rumor and I'll hunt you down.
Interviews are happening now and "mid to late July" is the last update on their Facebook page.

There is a sign on HWY 21 for a new Drew's Carwash near the HEB. Looks like Drew is trying to take over the market before Rapid Express does.

Went to Jason's Deli the other day. They were painting the exterior getting ready for signage. Taking a peek inside, they had a bunch of metal framing getting installed.

They are actively working on it.

"Appliances 4 Less" going in where the uniform store used to be in the Carter Creek Center on 29th in Bryan. Saw them unloading appliances into the store yesterday.

Any word on the Trackside Kolaches that is supposed to go where Cake Junkie used to be, right next to there?

Rusty had a piece up on Facebook showing Total Wine is hiring for College Station. I thought TexAgs knew stuff….

He probably got the info from TexAgs like usual.

Nope, because me and one other poster asked for an update. Crickets…

It wasn't a rumor so I didn't see any reason to comment on the most recent question about it

Signage for a Pizza Hut is up - Towerpoint in the same retail strip as 1860 Italia and Hotworx Yoga.

This is interesting considering Domino's is close by, R/X is across Fitch, Howdy's closed in that same area, and Blue Baker sells pizzas.

I bet they are going to shut the one on the Highway 6 Feeder by Sew Vac City down. That would make sense.

I have not had Pizza Hut in probably 20 years. Good luck to them on this gamble.

A Shawarma Factory is going in at Texas and Redmond in College Station (next to Aspen Dental).

I have only ordered it because I had landscapers at my house all day and that is what they wanted for lunch.

The chicken sandwich from the Shwarma truck in Northgate is to die for! I ate it three times the first week I tried it! I can't wait for this new place, because I prefer sit down restaurants over food trucks.

I enjoy Pizza Hut from time to time, but they don't deliver to my house just outside of CS (Papa Johns and Dominos both deliver) so hopefully the new location changes that

Just got an email from Zoe's that the CS location will be closing on June 22nd.

Edit - sorry for the double post. We must have posted at the same time!

Isn't Zoe's corporate renaming all the stores and changing the concept a bit?

Someone said it was changing to "Cava" but I'm not in the loop.

Yes, there was a post in this thread in late May about Zoe changing to Cava.

CAVA bought Zoe's so they are re-branding it.

its a Greek/MiddleEastern concept.

Of the 60 new Cava restaurants opening across the country this year, 55 of them are former Zoes Kitchens

I saw that but the email did not indicate a rebrand or a "stay tuned". It was we're closing.

Technically that is true

Went to Zoe's for lunch today since they are closing down soon and they already didn't have some items (like sweet tea) and signs up for limited weekend hours. I do think it is turning into a CAVA because CAVA has a CS location listed on their hiring page but no positions posted yet.

Not sure when I will be back over there though since the parking prices are up and I don't want to park in the garage. They charge $2.70 for 1 hour of parking there now!

I don't go to Century Square for that very reason, ever. Do they really have to charge for parking????

Cava didn't buy Zoe's, the company is rebranding a majority of Zoe's to CAVA, same company, slightly revised concept and name.
