B4-U-Eat also reports that Conroe Coffee opened in downtown Conroe (what would give you that idea?) on September 18. It's a typical coffee shop that serves all the classics and a few specialty items with catchy and cute names, including the Polar Bear (Ghirardelli chocolate, frosted peppermint syrup, espresso, steamed milk and crushed peppermint) and the Milky Way (espresso, steamed milk, chocolate syrup, caramel, whipped cream and chocolate shavings). Conroe Coffee also serves bagels, cinnamon rolls, scones, croissants and seasonal desserts.
We thought Worhals Midtown would open on September 5, but, alas, they did not. The bar did open on September 19. Eater reports that Worhals Midtown will be open for regular hours beginning on this week.
In brick-and-mortar news, Brooks' Place BBQ posted on Facebook two weeks ago that the barbecue trailer is opening a permanent location at 17045 FM 529, just a mile down the road from its current location. Judging from the reactions and comments of the trailer's Facebook followers, it's safe to say that everyone is excited about the expansion into a permanent location. Construction should begin soon, and Trent Brooks has high hopes for opening in a couple of months, as reported by Sandler on CultureMap. Thankfully, the trailer isn't going anywhere; it will be used as the pit behind the brick-and-mortar.
