I have not heard that. Nothing on the East Side FB group that I could find, either.

The Pioneer Press is reporting that Mac's Fish and Chips has closed their location on Snelling. No details on the reason, but the article notes that the location had been open for two and a half years... and somehow, I never got around to stopping in!

I saw there was something about a liquor license for a new establishment going into the old Ward 6 space in the latest city council meeting. It’s called “East side bar”. Anyone know anything about it?

Same owner. I don't know if they're going to keep the Ward 6 name, but I think the menu will different. The wood floor has been refurbished and apparently the basement was redone.

When a brewery owner wanted to amend a zoning regulation to allow wine-only shops in closer proximity to other liquor stores than is currently allowed, an extremely St. Paul thing happened: https://www.twincities.com/2021/05/03/w ... nly-shops/

“St. Paul has an incredible reputation for being so horrible with small business, and they didn’t want to hurt that reputation.”

The statement makes this closing sound pretty isolated and permanent, but in theory a move up the road to the area around Allianz Field would make a lot of sense. That Snelling location was always kind of random.

Doesn't the Pivot still have a large leasable commercial space at ground level? Honestly, that would be a pretty good spot for them to move.
