Rumors so don't take me on this as fact but Frank Pepe may not be opening in Stamford and there is word that the former Bullshead diner may become Little Pub. Just throwing it out there. Heard from a reputable source but never know whats fact and what is fiction. Love the idea of Little Pub and its the perfect spot at Bullshead but the loss of Frank Pepe would be disappointing if true.
Both rumors again Little Pub where Bullshead Diner was and yes well aware of where they are working on Shake Shack and what was supposed to be Frank Pepe.
Didn't they just break ground on the Frank Pepe/Shake Shack building this week?
Also, isn't Frank Pepe going in in Fairfield?
Again rumors and whether they broke ground or not means nothing. Its plausible and yes I'd be disappointed as well but these are the rumors....
Frank Pepe already has a restaurant in Fairfield
Literally a news story on it today: https://www.stamfordadvocate.com/news/article/Stamford-construction-pepes-shake-shack-17502005.php
That was a rumor on Nextdoor. I haven’t seen any evidence that Pepe’s won’t be opening. Their permits are still under review according to this article from a few days ago. https://www.stamfordadvocate.com/news/article/Stamford-construction-pepes-shake-shack-17502005.php
It would be a big risk for Brennan to start construction without a tenant…
With the new Whole Foods and Saks opening I think it's a huge opportunity area for new business. Seems silly to cancel the Frank Pepe when they could get so much traffic.
Just sharing what I heard from a business owner that Bullshead landlord is adding parking by demolishing a house adjacent and that Pepes pulled out. If it's not factual so be it but the source is legit....
A reminder to everyone that shake shack supports the crazy Christian nationalist Doug Mastriano, who’s running for govt in PA
Thanks for putting the word out on that! I'm not a Shake Shack fan, but I officially moved to PA the first week in October so I could get there in time to vote for Shapiro and Fetterman. Still working in Stamford though, so splitting my time.
Well. Let me rephrase that - I moved a couple of weeks earlier than I originally planned. I was moving to PA permanently and keeping my job in CT no matter what, was just planning for late October originally.
Not enough people know this about shake shack! It’s awful
Guess they're going on the hitlist with chick fil a. Because that pretty much murders any chance of me ever getting food from there.
Anyone heard the rumor that a Dig Inn was going in? That's one of the things I miss most about NYC
Isn’t it their bread maker (Martin’s Potato Rolls) that gives $$$ to Mastriano, not Shake Shack?
There isn’t a house contiguous to the site. I can’t imagine creating parking across the street; this is such a car-centric intersection
Yes, Dig Inn is rumored to be going into the diner space across the street.
Yes there is a house adjacent to Bullshead shopping center just past Sals Pastry shop, first house is being demolished to add 30-40 parking spots.
Apologies. I don’t read your post closely enough. Now I see what you’re saying. The parking is definitely needed in that shopping center.
Yes but they’re Martin’s biggest supplier so
That would be fantastic!
Hey Stamford confirmed Digg Inn. It looks great!

Are these meant to be separate rumors or are you saying Little Pub is opening instead of Pepe? Pepe is supposed to open across the street from the diner
