Connor's Place now open; party Monday night.

Connor’s Place, former Bistro New Albany co-proprietor Dave Himmel’s new establishment, will have a grand opening party and ribbon cutting on Monday evening, May 14 from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

As a board member of Develop New Albany, and co-owner of NABC (two beers on tap), I’m very happy to represent my organizations at the ribbon cutting.

With relaxed sports bar ambience and casual dining in a historic building at 207/209 E Main (next to the Parthenon), Connor’s Place is the newest downtown New Albany drinking and dining entry. Dave plans on opening tomorrow (Friday, May 11) and Saturday for lunch and dinner. So far as I know, he’ll be closed Sundays.

There’s another knockout downtown outdoor seating area to go along with the Bistro New Albany patio, and a fine draft lineup: NABC Community Dark and Elector, Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA, Spaten Premium Lager, Franziskaner Hefe, and a sixth choice to be named. There’s also a full bar.

Readers are invited to come down and see us on Monday.
