First Friday is not just at that gallery, it is at many downtown business, they all stay open late, have specials and deals etc. |

First Fridays are a national thing. The JC ones are usually pretty good.
I agree, a location near Alley Katz would be just about perfect for the Mushroom, as good as JC can offer.
And thanks for the southsider comments!  As one, I pretty much concur wholeheartedly. We're moving in two months and have narrowed down our choices to the Haven at Knob Creek or somewhere in the Tree Streets. While I LOVE the Haven and its amenities... I really don't want to leave the south side.  |

grass is always greener, i suppose... a Mellow Mushroom is literally ~3 min walking distance (at a leisurely pace) from my home, but I'd rather eat @ Italian Pizza Pub on W. Walnut St. in JC any day. In the same vein, a Firehouse's barbecue sandwich beats anything here in Atlanta, which is quite possibly the worst barbecue city in the country. |

True, Atlanta isn't known for its barbecue, is it?
Italian Pizza Pub is really good and cheap! Alley Katz is also pretty good... |

Yeha, the pub is awesome. I like Quiznos better than alley katz, but the pub is awesome. I guess it is that "grass is always greener on the other side" mentality.

Yeah but, come on, this is Johnson City. The land of Restaurant Row can support a Mellow Mushroom as well. More choices is always great.
I love Quizno's (their toasted subs... I lived on them on UTK's campus!), too.
