Rosebud Diner totally gutted

[ron_newman]

The interior of the Rosebud Diner has been totally demolished. It's unrecognizable now.

One of the diner's front windows has two city permits displayed -- one for the demolition, the other for a dumpster. The permits were issued on January 31, so this work happened fast once it started.

If anyone has any news or even relevant rumors about what the owner's plans are, please post them here.

My understanding from someone in the food and beverage biz is that they will be serving comfort food. Still a bit vague...but given Posto and Painted Burro...maybe interesting macaroni and cheese, stews, grilled cheese? Hoping "comfort food" creates a diverse offering v. what is currently offered at the existing American bar/restaurants in Davis (Foundry, Orleans, Joshua Tree, Five Horses Tavern, etc...) It doesn't appear they will be taking advantage of the entertainment license? Does anyone know otherwise?

I hope you're wrong about the entertainment license, because we can always use more live-music venues.
