Hugh E. Bir Cafe’s 59th birthday is June 8 in New Albany Whether it was the historic downtown bar in his family’s possession since 1966, or the soft-spoken man himself, the name Hugh E. Bir has been synonymous with New Albany for so very long that most of this city’s residents probably think he came […]

I live in New Albany but still managed to miss this name change in early May, so let’s catch up. Milo’s Boba and Bakery remains as it was at 154 E. Main Street in downtown New Albany, and ownership is the same, but the business is now known as Mochi Wren. Here’s an explanation (obviously […]

Hugh E. Bir Cafe’s 59th birthday is June 8 in New Albany

The SoIN tourism folks have this to say about Hugh E. Bir’s Cafe in New Albany, known locally as the “ORIGINAL 4th Street Live,” and located at 324 E. Market St. You’ll get a down-home, part-honky-tonk, probably-won’t-order-a-martini kind of vibe at Hugh E. Bir’s. The place is full of stories. If you’re lucky, you might even catch […]

Parlour New Albany to move across alley to where the Hitching Post used to be

In the beginning, the Parlour Pizza concept was absorbed into a group called Craft Culture Concepts, which has expanded Parlour and is franchising the pizzeria. Then CCC metaphorically hopped into bed with Falls City Brewing to open a branch of Parlour in place of FCB’s taproom at its brewery in Louisville. FCB is owned in […]

Cultivated Table & Sip House opens in New Albany today (Monday 14 April)

Your daily correspondent is a resident of New Albany, where Matt and Jessica Bergman’s rehabilitation of the Wilcox Block (133-135 E. Market St.) is the stuff of local legend. They bought the historic building in 2006, which at that juncture was a ramshackle eyesore, and by 2007 the street-level commercial space was ready for occupancy.* […]

New Albany name change: Petra Mediterranean, formerly Aladdin’s

To my knowledge, the newly dubbed Petra Mediterranean Restaurant (37 Bank St., part of the Underground Station retail plaza) is the only locally-owned, independent (bricks ‘n’ mortar) purveyor of Middle Eastern food in Southern Indiana. Google corroborates this, but if I’m mistaken, please let me know. Operating until now as Aladdin’s, the Sajaja family business […]

New Albany Tavern, coming soon to where Pints&union used to be

On Thursday the owners of Old Louisville Tavern and Hillcrest Tavern acted to tame the bubbling SoIN rumorama by announcing that New Albany Tavern (I’m hoping this is the correct name) will open soon at 114 E. Market St. in the building occupied until recently by another bar that relocated to the Highlands. The historic downtown […]
