Posts: 297 11/11/09 01:00 PM	Tags : None just an FYI, the people that own City Bagel have rented out the building that currently houses The Grill. Once it moves to it's new location, they are planning on moving away from such a family type atmosphere and more to a bar scene. I have no idea about the name or anything like that, but the phrase "the way it use to be" was used several times. Think it'll still have food, but it'll be like burgers, cheese sticks, beer, ect and not so much salmon or whatever..

wbc40	So is City Bagel moving or opening a new establishment on Maxwell?	#2	[url]	[-]

Posts: 220 11/11/09 01:40 PM	As someone who lives in Oxford now I can tell you there is no way Varsity would work in Starkville. Varsity is very expensive at night and no one that I know of (college/graduate school age) ever goes to eat there. I hope whatever moves into the Grille is more affordable with a much better atmosphere than the Varsity here. This is life. So go and have a ball. Because the world don't move to the beat of just one drum. What might be right for you may not be right for some. You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have...my opening statement. Sit, Ubu, sit. Good dog. Peter Griffin

They are going to open a bar up in the building that currently houses The Cotton District Grill. But I have no idea what it will be like or what the name of it will be.

Posts: 21 11/11/09 03:36 PM	rumor was dan camp almost doubled the rent for the building, so the grill decided it was not worth it.

Posts: 3048 11/11/09 04:02 PM Captain of the Short Bus	Eatwithus group bought their condo unit. Tabor sold them the shell, eatwithus is paying to finish it out. And Dan may have wanted to double the rent in the old location, wouldn't have mattered, they were looking to move anyways because of the lack of parking. The new facility is going to be nice. If I can teach myself how, I'll post a rendering. You've got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming.

Posts: 7042 11/11/09 04:10 PM Message Board Hero	which, you are correct, is nice, but I don't think its the right direction. It will basically be a completely different place than what existed a few years ago. I think they'll lose a lot of their alumni crowd that has such a tie to that place. But hell, they are better businessmen than I am.

Posts: 3049 11/11/09 04:31 PM Captain of the Short Bus	And like you, I greatly preferred The Grill before they changed it at all. And, I'm not in the food service industry either, so what the hell do I know about it? You've got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming.

They have not decided on a name yet, but will keep things pretty much the same and have much better food. I worked at the Bagel for two years while I was at State and the food is outstanding there. The rent also isn't too high, the Grill just likes the location at the new Tabor building better (less college kids, etc). I think its gonna work out real well for them.

Posts: 153 11/12/09 11:58 AM	was disappointed with the "grown-up" format. The food is good but it feels like a chain restaurant. I ate there 4-5 times in the first few months it was open but I can't remember the last time. I don't know anything about their business or the restaurant business in general so it may be a great move out of the Cotton District but I don't see me going there, ever. I agree that it hasn't been what it once was for a long time but I loved the District location even if I had to loop the block 3 or 4 times to find a place to illegally park. Whatever opens in that space, if they have cold beer and some TVs I will be there.
