Blues City Coffee has Gone Away Blues

Blues City Coffee at Main and Peabody Place has gone out of business. We had good memories at this place.

Jillian's restaurant and entertainment center in Peabody Place Downtown closed Monday and will be replaced with a locally owned sports bar and restaurant. Expects to open in March.

The Silly Goose will replace Swig martini bar on the ground floor of the Peabody Place office tower at 100 Peabody Place.
