First Gateway Station Business Set to Open March 4

Top Dawg Tavern will be the first business to open inside the new development.

The first business to open inside Gateway Station, a 14,000-square-foot development along Ga. Highway 316, is set to welcome patrons in March. 

Wayne Bartlett with Maynard and Bartlett Realty Group in Winder said Top Dawg Tavern, a sports bar, is scheduled to open March 4. The business will be joined inside the development by a podiatrist's office, a nail salon, a mattress and furniture store and a Mexican restaurant.

The podiatrist, Dr. Jonnica Dozier, signed a lease for suite 200 last year.

Bartlett said that while plans for a Longhorn Steakhouse location in the area have been pushed back, he still expects the restaurant to build at the Gateway site.

"(Eight to 10) serious retailers/restaurants are in talks with us now," Bartlett said in an e-mail.
