One More to reopen as Bluff City Bayou


The great patio at the old "One More" lesbian bar at Cooper and Peabody will soon be reopened to the general public and the surrounding neighborhood for all to enjoy.

The place has been closed for a few months now and I think I've reported previously that the for lease sign went down and that a new tenant was imminent. Well, the Memphis Business Journal has confirmed it this morning. According to an article in todays MBJ, Bluff City Bayou will be moving into the great little space soon. Their owners have already signed the lease and it looks like renovations are coming along at a good pace. No reopening date has been announced but it doesn't look that far off. 

I'm pretty excited since I'll be able to walk to this place. It's about a half mile or so to my house and I've always thought the patio was nice. I never felt like I could just waltz in there though. Hopefully the neighborhood will keep it busy and open!
