This warehouse at 300 North College, the former site of Cosmos and Republic, is getting a makeover!
A management duo is bringing music, beer and family-style Italian dining to Uptown.
Tim Dolan and Jason Astephen are the faces behind 300 Bar Group, and they have big plans for the 300 block of North College Street.
The pair is set to open their beer and music hall Flight next month.
The casual, North Carolina-centric German-style beer hall will have 80 brews on tap from behind its 70-foot bar. The list will include Tarheel State brews, such as Asheville’s Wicked Weed.
Flight’s musical selections will be as diverse as its tap list. A house band and local groups will perform weekly, but nation performers will appear a few times a month. Open mic night will also be a staple of the schedule.
In addition to Flight, 300 Bar Group has plans to bring family-style Italian dining to the block.
The 8,000-square-foot space formerly occupied by Cosmos will be turned into a 1950s era as yet unnamed Italian restaurant. It will feature a high-end wine bar for wines by the glass or bottle.
300 Bar Group has leases on three spaces in the 300 North College warehouse location, which is being called Northside Station.
300 Bar Group’s goal is to rebrand the location with local restaurants and destinations that keep people eating, drinking and enjoying local fare to give back to the Queen City economy.
