Unfortunately, we do have two business closings to announce (luckily, the openings outnumber the closings).
PBR Lockhart Steakhouse
The country/western-themed steakhouse at Bridge Street has closed. After hosting a New Year’s Eve bash at the Huntsville location, the restaurant closed its doors permanently.
Ding How II
After a fire at Ding How II on Whitesburg Drive closed the restaurant temporarily in April, the owners have opted not to renew their lease at its current location.
