Bob Niedt's "Retail Notebook" column in today's Post-Standard describes plans for the former MacGregor's location near Hanover Square in Syracuse.
Hanover Square in downtown Syracuse is getting a little more Irish.The line that caught my attention is "We'll keep all the beers on tap, starting with 50.". Hooray and thank you to Kelly Cole's!

Water St. are the folks behind Kelly Cole's Restaurant & Pub, outside of Liverpool.
MacGregor's, in Hanover Square since 1997, recently closed so the owners could concentrate on the three MacGregor's in the Rochester market.
Kelly Cole and her husband, Bob, said they are thrilled to be landing the downtown business.
"We're buying the building, closing hopefully on Thursday. Then we're going to do some renovations, some painting, then open April. April-ish," said Kelly.
They've had Kelly Cole's going for five years. It has a dinner menu. The downtown pub will concentrate on the lunch crowd, said Kelly.
"It's going to be the same sort of Irish pub theme that we have," said Kelly. "We'll keep all the beers on tap, starting with 50."
The timing is right.
"Hanover is just going great right now," said Kelly. "We're going in at a great time."
