Happy Tuesday everyone, I hope you are all safe and well.
As we know based on yesterday’s announcement restaurants and others will be able to open doors again next week!
This is amazing news for the economy.
Which brings me to the hardest thing I’ve ever had to say or do.
After so much thought, discussing, back and forth, and some new opportunities presented to Travis and myself, we have decided that we are going to move forward in another direction that will be better for us.
That being said, I believe whole heartedly that we have found a solution to your dedication to Banjo’s that will make everyone happy!
We are turning the show back over to the original Banjo’s Grill creators, Mike Metcalf and Jay McGill.
They won’t be opening right away, as you can imagine there’s a lot to do to be ready.
I will be sad to say see ya later, but will still be around Hastings and look forward to seeing everyone again!
Thank you for making this adventure an amazing experience.

On a secondary note, IceCreamVille is still going to be owned and operated by us, and we will look forward to seeing all the happy ice cream lovers this summer!
It’s not goodbye, it’s see you later.
