Is that what happened to White Owl? I rarely went there but it seemed to do decent business. I was there once early in its run and there was a bad smell coming from somewhere, like being downwind from a garbage dumpster. My wife wouldn't let us ever go back. I always thought it was just a one time thing and we happened to be the wrong table at the wrong time.
No, I was riffing on the apocalyptic start up at Shotgun Sam’s. Far as I know the White Owl was doing great business, we ate there a few times, but nothing compelling that made me a regular. |

I was told it was the building owner's choice to end the business relationship with White Owl. |

Wow, a restuarant claiming to have "lost its lease" really lost its lease. |

I had heard that there was a domestic split reason for its demise. |

I will not claim my source as irrefutable. |

Thought I heard that White Owl was relocating to Brookside? Yes? No? Maybe?

I had heard that too. I honestly can't remember, is there anything where the Ivey was with the rooftop patio? That could be a good spot. Or where Garlic Rose used to be. |

I heard both of these. |

There is an ancient Celtic axiom that says 'Good people drink good beer.' Which is true, then as now. Just look around you in any public barroom and you will quickly see: bad people drink bad beer. Think about it. - Hunter S. Thompson

This past weekend apparently. I've been informed it's doing the furniture store thing and re-opening as something called 15 Below. |

Wow, the Snail was a sh!tty bar institution in this town. Where will all the DBs go now? I need to know what to avoid now. |

The Gray Snail was great for happy hour. Then the popped collars would start showing up around 8 and it was time to leave. Something called "15 Below" seems to me to be in furtherance of this crowd but maybe I'm wrong.
