The next generation of J\u2019s Steaks & Subs will soon begin with a new food truck in the Lehigh Valley.<\/p>\n
The food truck will operate at the Weyerbacher Brewing Co. taproom at 905 Line St. in Easton, according to an online announcement<\/a> from J\u2019s Northampton, which closed in May<\/a> at 1830 Main St. in Northampton.<\/p>\n Aleea Clawson, the daughter of the late former J\u2019s Northampton owner Daniel Strain<\/a>, will operate the truck alongside her husband Brandon. It\u2019s expected to open later this month after inspection, according to Ed Lozano, the owner of the food truck and Weyerbacher.<\/p>\n \u201cThey approached me about opening up a new location, and \u2026 I thought the time was right,\u201d Lozano said. \u201cWe have an opportunity and need here at the brewery. We have a food truck, so we agreed that they would operate the food truck here in Easton, and then see how this goes.\u201d<\/p>\n Daniel owned and operated J\u2019s Northampton since 1986, and his wife Candace<\/a> took over after Daniel died last year. It was the final location for the J\u2019s chain, said Lozano, who is excited to reestablish the brand.<\/p>\n \u201cIf we get great reception, if the food continues to be excellent and our customers are excited about it and looking for more outlets, then we will definitely explore brick and mortar or other forms of establishments to get the J\u2019s cheesesteaks and food menu to consumers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
