Anyone have inside word on when the Kite and Key Gastropub (Callowhill St.) or the Tiedhouse (Hamilton St.) are opening?

This is all third hand info so.... take it with a grain of salt...

Kite & Key - I heard was shooting for July maybe... figure aug/sept then... the guys at bishops collar might know since the K&K owners came from there.

I'm guessing the Tiedhouse is the new place on hamilton that is replacing Gojo.... was I the only person that actually liked Goji?.... anway...

Here is the url for the supposed owners other restaurant.

All I can say is if the Tiedhouse is a brew pub like the other one the owners are going to need to step it up a notch on the food especially... I lived out that way for years and the restaurant is ok but the city bar food competiton is MUCH steeper.

Either way lets welcome our new eateries once they open up!

Kite and Key should be opening in a week or so. Place looks great.

The other day I was so desperate for a beer, I snuck into the football stadium and ate the dirt under the bleachers.

Kite & Key was bumpin tonite. I wanted to go in. Is it open now?

I talked with one of the guys at Kite and Key, and he told me they want to be up and running by the Fourth. I can check to see if they have a more definitive date in mind.

I went to the opening last night...it was pretty busy! Great beer selection, good crowd.

Is it open for business today, July 4th?

Yes, the K&K is open today. They officially opened yesterday at 4pm. I went last night and it had a great crowd. You should check it out!

So far, we've had the fish tacos, the shrimp po' boy and the chocolate bread pudding. Really, really good.

The wait staff knows its menu very well also.

Overall, a real pleasure.

Had a nice time over the weekend at Kite and Key. The place looks great, the staff was very nice and they have a nice variety of beers on tap. We'll definitely be in a bunch. A nice welcomed spot to the area.

Cheers!

I also saw that The Tiedhouse (formerlly Goji) had a sign up that said they'll more than likely open this summer, and will offer the General Lafayette brews on tap (about 6-8) and other locally crafted brews as well. I look forward to that opening as well. They have a great patio that will be great in the end of the summer/fall.
