Natty Greene’s to move into Powerhouse Building on Jones St.
Over the course of 2009, Greensboro-based Natty Greene’s Brewpub will open a new location in Raleigh. The location will be 505 West Jones St., the former location of Southend Brewery and Prime Only Steakhouse and Sushi Bar. Both Natty Greene’s and Greensboro were named for for Nathaniel Greene, the Revolutionary War General who commanded Colonial troops into battle throughout North Carolina. While the pub shares its namesake with a specific city, Natty’s owners are eager to establish Natty Greene’s as North Carolina’s premier brewery. In an article in Greensboro’s News & Record on January 23rd, co-owner Chris Lester stated “We want to become North Carolina’s brewery…We need to establish ourselves in the large metropolitan areas to achieve that goal.”
