That's what surprises me most. I'm no expert and hate to second guess, but 6 months doesn't seem long enough to establish a clientele for that kind of restaurant … especially when 3 of those months are during the summer. I'm just really disappointed because it was very good and the kind of unique place we need around here.
Wanted to go. Did not take the chance to do so. I am sure others share the same sentiment. The location is a problem for that type of restaurant. Location is critical. I would venture to say that Maddens shut down for the same reason they are - not enough traffic because of location.maroon barchetta said:Prosper92Ag said:

I only knew about Clementine because of this forum.
That's part of the problem.
this - never knew where it was until recently parking back there. Strange that they are closing on the first Friday of September and first home game weekend.MS08 said:Wanted to go.

A manufacturer of cold storage equipment located just outside the Bryan city limits north of Coulter Field airport is expanding.
That is after Brazos County commissioners approve an economic development agreement to allow EVAPCO to build a $9 million dollar addition that will host a newly acquired Canadian company.
The expansion will create at least 90 full time jobs by the end of 2026 with an average annual salary of at least $65,000 dollars.
The agreement calls for the county to receive for five years, a payment equal to 50 percent of the property taxes associated with the expansion.

Wow, tea? I know Dutch Bros is coffee, but that is going to be serious competition. Parking will be tight.
15 additional students will be moving in to that place.legalbird said:
What is the business going next door to the Berkley House on Wellborn? It is small. Maybe 2000 sq ft or less.

Access in and out of there will be a cluster.

What's going in next to Midas in Texas Ave in CS? Anything specific, or just generic retail shell space/mini strip center?

so it's not a Texan gas station?
not sure that is the same as this place...and some of their locations are really, really obscure. One of these towns has like 100 people in it.MiMi said:TyHolden said:

According to KBTX, TXB on University in Bryan had their grand opening today.

well, they typically have fountains that work and gas pumps in order. Been to a former Stripes lately? LOLbirdman said:
I've said it before on here but will repeat myself.
I don't understand the fascination with high end gas stations. I see them building Bucees everywhere and knockoffs. But I don't get it.

The bathroom smell difference is the biggest seller for me.
I like going into a place where I don't feel I need a shower and a shot of penicillin just because I needed to use the restroom. Similarly, I like feeling safe getting something to eat on the road rather than being concerned I'm about to ingest listeria.birdman said:
