The owners behind Brick Store Pub in Decatur are on the lookout for locations for a brew pub, and one possible location is in East Lake.

Jeff Johnson, president of the East Lake Neighbors Community Association, confirmed representatives from the Brick Store attended a recent ELNCA meeting. The company has expressed an interest in the former East Lake Auto Works shop on Memorial Drive.

Todd DiMatteo, general manager of the Brick Store Pub, told Decaturish that the shop is one of several locations on the company’s radar.

“We’re looking all over the place,” he said. He said he had no additional details to share at this time.

Johnson said that Brick Store reached out to the ELNCA about the location.

“Bottom line, they’re interested in it,” Johnson said.
