Chef Bradley Griffin will serve casual cuisine at Sarah Jean’s Eatery, a new restaurant in the Glade Spring town square. After two days of soft openings, the restaurant will open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. beginning July 12.
Sarah Jean’s Eatery opens on Friday in the former Central Store building that operated in the Glade Spring town square a generation ago. To honor the history of the building, Griffin will make his own version of a Cherry Smash carbonated drink that was a favorite among the locals.
Bradley Griffin looks at several family photographs that he will display on a wall in the new eatery. Sarah Jean's Eatery is named after both of his grandmothers.
Customers can see container gardens at the entrance to the restaurant where the chef grows a variety of mints, such as chocolate, ginger and lemon, and herbs including dill, cilantro, parsley, basil and oregano.
Chef Bradley Griffin prepares a sign that announces his new eatery in the Glade Spring town square. The restaurant will also be a store front for Bradley’s Wallowing Whistlepig Sauce Co., Griffin’s handcrafted product that will be sold at the restaurant, online and at the Glade Spring Farmers Market.
