It seems like just yesterday we learned that Homecomin’ by Chef Art Smith was getting a new patio bar, and today we noticed some new signage as sweet as sweet tea!
That’s right, the new patio bar is putting its finishing touches on and looks to be just about ready to open.
This new sign certainly makes us feel as though we are comin’ home!
We can definitely see ourselves grabbing a cup of moonshine (you’ll be able to order in a 32oz milk jug TO GO that you can drink at home!) and chowing down on some of the limited menu items returning to the restaurant (Hummingbird Cake, anyone?!). Ultimately, the new signs being up means this outdoor patio is almost ready for action.
The grand opening of Shine Bar & Social is set for tomorrow, and Chef Art Smith himself will be in attendance for the big day!
Tomorrow can’t come soon enough and you better believe we will be there to check it out.
