After spending months fixing up their new location, CJ’s Pizza’s new joint is officially ready.
The family-owned pizza parlor, formerly located on 18th Avenue North, opens Monday at its new location at 6188 Hwy. 45 N., previously the Louisiana Shrimp Shack.
The location at 18th Avenue is officially closed as of this week.
With a new location, that means we also have new menu items including loaded knots and stromboli.
“No words can describe how I feel. And the feeling of how I know my father, the founder, would be so proud of me,” owner Courtney Teague said. “… I know I am so appreciative of my staff and customers who have helped and supported (us).”
Check out the new spot, menu items and vibes 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays.
Once the family gets the restaurant up and rolling, they will start to host monthly “Cruising to CJ’s” events where folks can show off their hot rods and classic rides before heading inside for some food.
Moving toward Main Street, a new night spot is ready for customers.
The Tavern Wine Bar, 418 Second Ave. N., opens Thursday for customers craving wine, custom cocktails and amazing snacks. Zachary’s owner Doug Pellum’s latest venture is open 4-10 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday and is open for patrons 21 and older only. Though reservations are not required, it is recommended. Make sure to check out the newest downtown spot for some charcuterie and wine!
Also in Columbus, Max Muscle Nutrition, 507 18th Ave N. is expanding its operations.
The new location is at 2414 Hwy. 45 next to Core Fitness. The grand opening and ribbon-cutting will be 4 p.m. Tuesday with various sales, giveaways, free samples and more.
That’s it for this week, y’all!
