SnugBar coming to the Parkway

An orange sign has popped up on the spot in the Windsor (17th and the Parkway) that formerly housed Peacock on the Parkway, followed for about five minutes by Kujaku.

Its name will be SnugBar, which sounds Irish. Fittingly, talk is that a former owner of Tir na Nog, the bar a block away in the Phoenix, is behind the project. Stay tuned.

@Meatloaf: Peacock on the Parkway survived there for at least 10 years, so I wouldn't say that particular spot is a bad location. The surrounding area needs some decent restaurants, so if this place is reasonably good, I would think they will do well.

Not a bad location and those Tir na nOg boys run a good operation. Will be a welcome alternative to the nearby overpriced Public House. Plus will bring some well deserved attention to a corner that already has one of the best pubs in Philly: Mace's Crossing.

The parkway area is so depressing. It looks like a ghost town after 6PM.
