Jolly Pumpkin has closed its location in Detroit’s Midtown area.
The local pizza and beer chain announced its closure on social media, writing, “After 11 incredible years, JP is closing its doors. We are so grateful for the love, support, and memories you’ve shared with us over the years, it has truly meant everything.”
Jolly Pumpkin says it plans to reopen somewhere else in the city. “This isn’t goodbye, just see you soon,” the post continues. “JP will be back in Detroit, and we can’t wait to share what’s next. Stay tuned here for updates.”
Jolly Pumpkin also has locations in Ann Arbor, Dexter, East Lansing, and Traverse City.
The space, located at 441 W. Canfield St., won’t be empty for long. Brad Greenhill of popular Thai-inspired Detroit restaurant Takoi says he is moving in with his Spiedo concept. Described as a “Mediterranean-ish” concept, Spiedo opened its first location at 307 S. Fifth Ave., Ann Arbor, in 2023.
“The Detroit one will be a little bit different in that it’s in a much larger space and we’re going to expand the menu a little bit, at least for dinner,” Greenhill said, according to The Detroit News, adding that he is aiming to open this summer.
