1876 Bar and Grille temporarily closed for a refresh, exec says
1876 Bar & Grille, a gastropub-style restaurant and bar inside a hotel on Capital Circle Northeast, is temporarily closed. The restaurant is listed as "permanently closed" on Google, while its Facebook page has been inactive since June, but in an email exchange Edgewater Group marketing executive Madison Lagrou cleared things up. "Our Alluxsuites at 1876 property recently transitioned from Choice Hotels’ Ascend Hotel Collection to Choice Hotels' MainStay Suites brand. As part of this transition, we are refreshing and redesigning the restaurant menu, with plans to reopen at the start of next year," she said. In March 2025, AlluxSuites at 1876 debuted in the state capital as a new extended stay boutique hotel for the Tallahassee market. That November, the brand elevated its offerings with the addition of a restaurant that offered that neighborhood feel right on Capital Circle. In its eight months of operation, the gastropub offered a cozy, casual setting with an outdoor patio that featured high-top tables, cushioned seating by the fire pits, televisions and live music. The menu offered flexibility, providing a taste of what "Tallahassee likes and expects" in an upscale presentation. "What'll make the restaurant successful is if the public adopts it," Edgewater Group
