On New Year’s Day, many bars don’t open until 5 PM, giving their staff time to recover from Amateur Night/New Year’s Eve. In an attempt to plan my day, I asked my readers and Facebook, what Downtown bars and restaurants will be open earlier than 5? These are the responses I got.
Majestic Grille will be open for New Year’s brunch from 11 AM to 3 PM. Final seating is at 2. Reservations are highly recommended. Each table will get a complimentary bowl of black-eyed peas for good luck.
Downtown Huey’s will open at noon.
Max’s Sports Bar will be open and will have all the NFL games on. Lauren will be bartending.
All of River City Management’s places will be open normal hours. Those include Papa Pia’s, Mesquite Chop House, Spindini, The Pig on Beale, King’s Palace Cafe, Tap Room, Absinthe Room, Rum Boogie and probably a couple of others that I’m leaving out.
Local will be open and doing brunch 11-3, then switching to the dinner menu after that.
Peabody Lobby Bar will open at 11, Corner Bar at 4.
That’s what I have now… if I missed anything, email me at paul@paulryburn.com or hit me up on Facebook, and I’ll revise if needed.
