The biggest news of the week was the grand opening of Mobile’s newest food hall, The Insider! A food hall is a new concept to this area but not new in other cities around the country. If you remember eating Sbarro at the old food court Bel Air Mall, you will be pleased to find that the indoor dining concept has come a long way!

The Insider opened on June 1st with five restaurants inside, PS Taco Co, HammeredCow, Poke Bowl Sushi Burrito & Boba, Arabelle, and Chicken District. Each restaurant has something for everyone's taste buds! A sixth spot is open for draft beer and wine. Adjoining The Insider is the newly opened Outsider which is an upscale sports bar with food provided by the restaurants next door. An attached arcade and outdoor patio also fill the space.

If you haven't checked out restaurants in downtown lately, you're really missing out.

Go check out The Insider and The Outsider at 518 Dauphin Street!

📰 News: Hippiest Town, Trombones from Apple, Hangout Arrests

In this article, Fairhope was named the happiest town in Alabama. What do you guys think? Most Artsy? Yes.But Hippiest? We don't knowwwww, that's a stretch.But maybe it's the best option we've got in Alabama.

Did you guys know that the CEO of Apple attended Robertsdale high school?True story.And Tim Cook (the CEO) just donated $100k to the band.Tim himself used to play the trombone.$100k can buy a bunch of tootin' horns.Thanks, Timmy!

Did you guys attend the Hangout Music Festival in May?Apparently, 133 folks were arrested.Most were drug-related charges.Things that make you go... hmmm...Only 3 were for attempting to elude the officers.Not too shabby.

👍Local Business Friends of The Rundown

Mike Ward Liberty Safes has been a Mobile Alabama staple and play a large role in protecting our community.

They are the largest safe dealer on the Gulf Coast and provide white-glove service. One thing we like is that they deliver your safe (can also move them for you) in a discreet manner. Even the delivery vehicle is low-key and doesn't scream "Hey, I'm delivering a safe!!"

You can shop online, ping them on Facebook, or stop by their showroom (just look for the giant yellow safe in the air at Moffet and I-65).

We appreciate all of our Supporters​

We love the city and we love you!
