PARK SLOPE — Don't let the "S" throw you — the new City Subs opening on Fifth Ave. will serve the exact same sandwiches as the City Sub that closed last year, Grub Street reported.
A former employee of City Sub, which closed in 2014 after 28 years in business at 450 Bergen St., is opening a new incarnation of the shop called City Subs at 82 Fifth Ave.
Despite the slightly different name, the new version will serve exactly the same highly-praised sandwiches as the original location, owner Thomas Moran told Grub Street.
Other comings and goings on the retail and restaurant scene include the following:
► Laynter's Linen & Home will close its Brooklyn location at 794 Union St. off Seventh Avenue on Aug. 23, an employee told DNAinfo New York.
“I’m going to miss a lot of my regular customers,” said employee Ethnie Grazette. “It’s going to be sad for me."
This November would have been the store's seventh year in business, Grazette said. Laytner's other stores on the Upper West Side and the Upper East Side will remain open, she said.
► The Blue Bottle Coffee cafe moving into 203 Seventh Ave. near Third Street appears to be opening soon and has started hiring baristas, Park Slope Stoop reported.
► The health supplements store Urban Wellness at 72 Seventh Ave. and Berkeley Place closed after just a few months in business, Here's Park Slope reported. The space was previously home to the Walk-In Cookbook.
