Mr. Hoagie reopens store May 1

Brian Coleman

Brian Coleman, aka Mr. Hoagie, who was injured in the March 1 fire that destroyed his home, will reopen Brian and Ann’s restaurant Thursday, May 1. He spent a month in the West Penn Burn Center in Pittsburgh and benefits were held – coordinated by daughter Ashley Hunt -- to help the Coleman family recover from its loss.

Brian/Mr. Hoagie’s Facebook post:

“Good morning to all. Just an FYI. My wife and I will reopen the restaurant on Industrial Park Road on this Thursday May 1st and we will be open Monday thru Friday 11 to 6. It will be at least June b4 I’m healthy enough to begin our mobile route again. I’m sorry for that.

“I hope every one of our wonderful customers will come to the restaurant to see us. We will be waiting to see everyone. Thank you for supporting us the past couple of months.

“It has been tough but God is always faithful and I’m still here to greet everyone. Have a blessed day.

“Mr. Hoagie.”

The Heavenly Hoagie food truck parks itself for most of the day in a community as part of the mobile route – Monongah, Fairview, Farmington, Shinnston. Once Brian gets better, than practice will be resumed.

The Industrial Park address is 1139 Booth’s Creek Road in Monongah. The phone number is (304) 709-2333.

Welcome back, Mr. and Mrs. Hoagie.
