Delayed Morrie opening

Instead of a winter opening it’s looking like guests will have to wait until this summer to enjoy food and drinks at the Birmingham version of The Morrie. According to Aaron Belen, owner of AFB Hospitality, construction hasn’t started yet at 260 N. Old Woodward in Birmingham. They are waiting to finalize a few more decisions before they submit for their full building permit. When construction does begin, the space will look as it did when they presented the plan to the city last year. “We’re just making sure everything is exactly the way that we want it and taking our time,” said Belen when asked about the pushed back opening. They do have their dance permit ready to go, though, so get ready to shimmy.
