After more than 20 years on South Howard Avenue, Tampa\u2019s Daily Eats will be closing its doors to undergo a complete brand makeover, the restaurant\u2019s ownership announced Thursday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ciccio Restaurant Group will be permanently closing Daily Eats, its \u201cmodern refresh of the classic diner,\u201d to launch a new restaurant in the same space at 901 South Howard Ave. The closure is scheduled for June 15 and should last \u201ca few weeks\u201d until Daily Eats reopens as Meeting House \u2014 a neighborhood restaurant where guests can \u201cmeet, eat \u2026 and repeat,\u201d the release says. \u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDaily Eats has been a meaningful part of the South Howard community for over two decades, serving as a place where first dates turned into families, regulars became friends and lasting memories were made,\u201d the company says in a press release Thursday. \u201cCRG does not take that history lightly. This is not goodbye to the people or spirit of Daily Eats.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to the release, the team at Daily Eats will stay on at the new restaurant, and some guest favorites will remain on the menu. Unlike Daily Eats, which has been a longtime local favorite for breakfast, Meeting House\u2019s menu will offer lunch and dinner with a weekend brunch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile change can be emotional, especially for a place tied to so many memories, CRG is incredibly grateful for the support the community has shown over the years and is excited to create something new for South Howard while still honoring what came before it,\u201d the release says.\u00a0<\/p>\n
CRG was founded more than 30 years ago in New York City and currently operates 30 different restaurants, including Cali, Fresh Kitchen, Green Lemon, Jay Luigi, Sweet Soul, Taco Dirty, and Water + Flour. Its portfolio also includes South Tampa and California wellness and fitness boutique CAMP.<\/p>\n
