3 Brothers Deli & Brew House

About me:

The Edge: Deli, brew heads downtown By: ERIN EDGEMON, Business Editor Posted: Sunday, October 4, 2009 7:12 am A restaurant with a new concept is coming to downtown Murfreesboro. Three Brothers Deli and Brew House is expected to open at 223 W. Main St. in the former location of Tomato Tomato at the end of October, said owner Eric Fortney. Three Brothers will feature New York-style deli sandwiches. All of the meat and cheese will be cut in house. The restaurant also will have 20 beers on tap and 100 different types of beer in house. The restaurant will have a vintage feel, Fortney said. It will be set up like a 1960s Italian deli. “There is nowhere else in town where you can have food and a variety of beer,” Fortney said of why he decided to open this type of restaurant. “It is fast and easy. “It is where I want to hang versus the choices I had before,” he said. Fortney moved to Middle Tennessee 10 years ago after attending culinary school in Pittsburgh, Pa. He finally decided now was the right time to live out his dream and open his own restaurant. He had wanted to rent the space on West Main Street for three and a half years. “I snapped on it when the building opened up,” he said. “I like the atmosphere of the downtown square.” Source: The Murfreesboro Post
