The restaurant, a sister concept to TallBoys, opened in May 2018 with a deli-inspired menu and music-focused bar. Previous tenants at the 340 N. Fourth Ave. space included controversial restaurants the Crackhouse and US Fries.
Cans actually has solid food though, so enjoy them if you can before they close. The smoked and fried wings and the Pork Belly Banh Mi are winners.
The space will be on the market soon — interested tenants should contact Cans directly.
Cans Venue and Lounge is located at 340 N. Fourth Ave. Keep up with Cans Venue and Lounge on Facebook. For more information, call (520) 775-0226.
