A new Bellwood restaurant that will also feature video gambling machines, live DJ’s and an outdoor beer garden will host an official ribbon-cutting ceremony and grand-opening on Friday, Feb. 9., 8:30 a.m., with the help of the Bellwood Chamber of Commerce.

Club 717, located at 717 Bellwood Ave., in Bellwood, once housed Mr. Lee’s Pub. The new development continues “the pace of economic development in Bellwood,” according to a statement about the opening in the village’s February newsletter.

“The Village of Bellwood is proud to attract high-quality businesses, and Club 717 has very successful business owners that will make a nice addition to the area,” Peter Tsiolis, the village’s economic development director, said in the statement. VFP
