East Village cocktail spot The Beagle is reopening this Saturday, after closing for renovations back in July. As owner Matthew Piacentini told Eater back when he and co-owner Dan Greenbaum started the break, the Beagle 2.0 is going to serve a full food menu (as opposed to just small plates). It looks like the opening chef Garrett Eagleton is out, with former 'inoteca chef de cuisine Jeffrey Ryan Creager taking over the kitchen.
On the drinks side, the Beagle team is expanding the sherry list while keeping the focus on cocktails, of course. They're calling Creager's food menu "comfortable, approachable fare," with an opening menu that includes a BLT, a half chicken served with heirloom tomatoes, pistachios and basil, and a melon and arugula salad. The space itself has been opened up a bit with banquettes replacing chairs, new windows and a new paint job.
