New Cowgirls Bar and Grill Opening Just Down Yonder from Flint
Metro Detroit residents have probably heard the name Ginopolis around some neighborhoods. The family has operated eateries for years. Now, a new chapter begins for them in Brighton.
What's happening to Ginopolis' Bar-BQ Smokehouse / Speakeasy in Brighton?
According to a March 29th Facebook post, the BBQ spot is closing to make way for a country-themed bar & grill named 'Cowgirls.'
What will the new Cowgirls in Brighton feature?
The space will still be a restaurant and bar with other entertainment including:
- line dancing
- country DJs
- live music with a country focus (singers, songwriters)
- and a comedy club in the basement called 'The G Spot Down Under'
- banquet space
Smaller, but familiar menu
Owner, Melissa Ginopolis, told Livingston Daily the restaurant menu will be smaller, but showcase favorite barbecue items from the smokehouse days including: pulled pork brisket, brisket reuben sandwiches and jumbo wings. You can expect "bar food and some salads."
