Dining News: New Burgers & Brew Location Replacing Purgatory
April 06, 2014
Burgers & Brew will be adding a second location on The Grid, replacing Purgatory at 17th & J in early 2015, reports Sac Biz Journal's Ben van der Meer.
Derar Zawaydeh, who owns with his brother the successful gourmet counter-service burger restaurants as well as Crepeville restaurants, said the project is already in design phase.
“It’s going to be something similar to what’s on R Street,” Zawaydeh said of the 12,800-square-foot building, which he and his brother bought this week. The principal difference stems from the layout, he said. With a 6,000-square-foot basement, the building at 1616 J St. will have brewing tanks planted there and coming through the floor to the ground level, where the restaurant and bar service will be.
Earlier, van der Meer reported that the owners of Burgers & Brew and Crepeville had purchased the building, they had yet to announce what brand they would be using at the location.

There are currently four Burgers & Brew locations, including Downtown (14th & R), the Airport, Davis and Chico.

Brewing Small, Thinking Big: Brewers popping up throughout the city in the least likely of places - Local players like Rubicon Brewing Company, River City Brewing Company and Hoppy Brewing Company have established a presence in the region built around a brewpub experience, serving custom brews along with traditional pubbish fare. These new brewers, however, have gone back to basics. Focusing on beer alone, they’ve left the kitchen duties to the region’s growing fleet of food trucks. During Sacramento Beer Week (Feb. 27-March 9), I visited a number of new breweries. Tucked away in industrial parks and office complexes, these bare-bones establishments feel like honest expressions of the brewing culture. They’re laid-back, accessible, well priced and neighborhood-centric. Here’s a small sampling.
