Captain Black's: Summertime drinking paradise coming to East Olive

Well, just off East Olive. I was on my way to get a haircut today when I came across a large deck being constructed on Belmont, just south of the Stumbling Monk.

Captain Black's front porch

It just so happens that the owner was there (pictured, seated with dog) and he told me the new joint will be a bar and grill called "Captain Black's" and will specialize in "fried chicken, waffles, and po' boys" as well as serving drinks. Not only will they have the amazing deck out front for summertime lounging, but a bigger, raised deck is also being constructed out back! Unfortunately, they wouldn't let me get in to take a picture but it will be just above Glo's and will hopefully have an amazing view. The new watering hole will be tentatively opening on June 1st.

Back Porch will be just above Glo's
