Headlines
But we already had Johnny Rockets in markets with high-traffic retail centers, particularly malls and outlet shopping centers, due to its entertaining atmosphere and broad appeal – Katy Mills Mall and Sugar Land Town Square.
They both closed.
Snooze A.M. looks like LePeep, but with liquor.
Snooze marks another win for Midtown in its conquest of Montrose.
That’s nice, Johnny Rockets. Wake us up when you’re ready to re-enter for real:

I love how they pimp McKinney, Texas but also include a blurb about the recent events pertaining to overexcessive use of force and racism. Great way to sell it as a #5 spot.
I have eaten at Snooze in Boulder and it was really, really yummy. I welcome Snooze.
Re: Bridgeland retail headline…. Wow, a 20 acre CVS anchor store! Keeping thing in proportion of course, I magine what a 1 acre nail salon and a 10 acre Matress store next door might look like.
