BLUEROOT closes in Pepper Place + makes way for a new sandwich shop

Pepper Place’s Blueroot has been a go-to for healthy and delicious food options since 2019. Now, it looks like the BLUEROOT location is undergoing a little rebrand.

Here’s what we know.

Goodbye, BLUEROOT + hello, The Mustard Club

Confirmed by signage on BLUEROOT’s door, the restaurant announced its closure.

But! It’s not the end for this team or Pepper Place-regulars.

The note reads:

“Lettuce turn over a new leaf!

Blueroot is closed and we are transforming into a new, neighborhood cafe. The Mustard Club is coming soon, a sandwich shop and more.

We look forward to being part of your daily routine! Stay tuned!

The Mustard Club is a new “all-day spot” brought by husband-and-wife duo Chris and Anna Newsome—the same couple behind Birmingham favorite Ollie Irene!

What to expect from The Mustard Club:

• Mornings with strong coffee + hot beignets
• Lunch features stacked sandwiches, craveable burgers + salads
• By evening, it’s aperitifs, snacks + drinks

Anticipating to open this fall, The Mustard Club will offer the classic neighborhood feel with a bit of elegance.
