One thing the original Colonnade offered that I’ve never seen ANYWHERE else:

Delicious gooseberry pie.

Can’t wait to see the old Colonnade back. The one at the Antique Mall wasn’t nearly the same. I want the steam table and all the overcooked veggies back!

I, for one, will be going to the Colonnade for lunch rather than the over priced places on 4th street. maybe this will start a “food war” if the Colonnade can draw enough people away.

IS the remaining $850million left over from the $1,8 million going to be used and dedicated to LOCAL business that might like to participate?….you think there should be a comparriason of what Chester Krill can get done with $40k large for free COMPARED to Cordish!!!!
I’ll be the Best damn barometer ever ….I can see the headlines ….Local Business Entrepenuer outfits restaurant with free $40k loan….Far cay from a $950k remodel….which BTW ….is TANKING!….
The core workforce that works downtown that make $25-$30k or less a year is about to choke on those $12 hamburgers!
Chester Krill will be smart enough to service the locals that want a $5.99 lunch!,,,,Krill will Kill it!

Would also like to know what’s in the basement now. And, glad to see the C back in business. Will make the walk down there just to support it.

I wish McCormick and Schmick would have set up shop there rather than the Collonade.

If they keep their prices low, they will clean up from all the office workers who are sick of paying $12 for a hamburger on 4th street. I’m assuming this is going in the space next to Seng?

Sure is nice of the city to let them back in, after they were ran out by Cordish in the first place.

The colonade had the best 7:25am breakfast for reporters who had to work the early morning shows. There was nothing like it when you had been up since 3:30am
