Posted on a local site about a year ago. Going to drive by tomorrow and do some recon to see if it’s actually coming to fruition... fingers crossed.

ISLES TEA SHOP ON CENTER STREET TO BECOME TIKI BAR by Mike Van Houten | 3 Comments
From the cool hills of Ireland and Scotland to the warm tropics of a paradise breeze, 809 South Center Street will soon be transforming from what was the center of everything Irish and Scottish, to a tiki bar from the people who brought you Midtown Eats and Death and Taxes.

A permit has been filed for 809 South Center Street, which reads'

TIKI BAR
REMODEL & ADDITION. INTERIOR DEMO & REMODEL OF EXISTING BLDG. CONSTRUCT 1,437 SF ADDITION AND 535 SF DECK. PLUMBING, MECHANICAL & ELECTRICAL.

So it sounds like a sizeable addition will be added, along with a deck. The backyard of Isles was a magical place to chill...I hope the addition doesn't consume too much of it, but it also wouldn't be much of a tiki bar sipping cocktails in a 45-degree magical garden in the winter lol. Not quite the same effect as imagining you're in the Scottish Highlands.

So, stay tuned!
