Heads Up On 2 Openings

Roanoke Times:

Zaxby’s Salem restaurant will open its doors this Monday, according to franchisee Tom Noelke. The fast food eatery on West Main Street opens from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. 7 days a week.

Also, I nailed down a potential opening month for Kroger’s new store under construction on U.S. 460 in Bonsack. It may open as early as July, said Carl York, a Kroger spokesman.

York also said Kroger is not announcing details yet about a new fuel center that appears planned for Towers Shopping Center. Last week, the grocery chain filed site plans with Roanoke City to build a 5-pump gasoline station at the corner of 23rd Street and Brandon Avenues. That area is just below Towers. Kroger has a store on Towers lower level.
