As rlewis had posted in the Red's Diner thread, that space at 840 W. Danforth (SE corner of Kelly & Danforth) is soon to open as Bricktown Brewery Edmond.
They are in the process of hiring and construction is wrapping up:

I know the owner. He's a great guy and the food is really improved over the last couple of years. I wish them well in expanding here and to Shawnee.
Drove by a couple of days ago and noticed the "now hiring" sign. I'm excited to have another dining (and drinking) option so close to my house.
I guess this is in the old Pearl's Cajun Kitchen location?
Is this the old Goldie's location?
It's where Red's Diner/Pablano Grill was.
Monterrey Jack's took over the Goldies location.
The best thing about this is that it may finally give edmond a place with a good selection of local brews.
Getting closer:
Is Bricktown Breweries beers 3.2 or can they sell the stronger stuff? I have tasted a few of their beers and they didn't taste watered down, but then again some 3.2 beer actually tastes good like Mustang Session '33. I have heard from multiple sources that any beer brewed by a bar/restaurant in Oklahoma had to be 3.2, no exceptions. Is that right?
To be anal and clarify further, a brewpub in OK can sell whatever strength beer they want, however, they are limited to brewing 3.2abw to sell on-premise. I can't speak exactly as to why this is but I'm pretty sure it mainly has to do with the tiered distribution of alcohol in the state. Production breweries can brew whatever strength but they can't serve/sell beer or food. The new law passing allowing samples/tasting rooms for production breweries will help but good grief, limited to 12oz? Ridiculous.
I saw their sign being hauled on the back of a truck on 2nd Street today.
Bricktown Brewery seems weird in Edmond. They do have Texas Steakhouses here so it's not like Chicago's Pizza should only be in Chicago. But, a Bricktown Brewery in Edmond, come on man!!!!
I guess they will start expanding in other cities soon.
I avoid going there because when they first started opening in Central Texas they started suing real Texas roadhouses who happened to use the name for trademark infringement even though many predated the start Indy based steak chain. To me it should have been considered a "generic term" at least in Texas and not a "name" that could be trademarked. I have eaten at one once in the past 12 years, don't plan on going back.
