The landscape of Lansing's businesses is always changing. Case and point, it was just the other day when we talked about a new sandwich option that had just opened near Frandor. Now, we have another new business coming our way.

I came across this announcement on a local Lansing Facebook group, and followed the trail to the source.

Turns out, Lansing is getting another restaurant! But not just any old restaurant...

As of right now, the announcement just says, "stay tuned" for more news about their grand opening, which is coming soon. However, no exact opening date has been mentioned yet.

Those looking for more fun night-life activities (and those missing the former dueling piano club, Rum Runners) you're in luck! REO Town Clubhouse also plans on adding fun activities to their repertoire. We can look forward to dueling pianos, billiards, and catching the game on the big screen.

Here's hoping this will be an excellent addition to the REO Town area!

Lansing Area Bars and Restaurants That Serve Amazing Mocktails

Whether you are a pregnant person, a sober person, an underage person, or just a person who doesn't feel like drinking alcohol at the moment, there's got to be something out there for us, right? That's when I discovered the beauty of a mocktail. If you don't drink alcohol, for whatever reason, there are some fantastic restaurants and bars in Lansing that serve up more than pop and lemonade. Check out these spots that have amazing mocktails.
