Loeb Properties issued a press release this morning with news about a new restaurant, Belly Acres, coming to Overton Square.

From the release:

Belly Acres, a new farm to table burger restaurant concept by Ben McLean, signed a lease for 3,894 SF of space at 2102 Trimble Place in Overton Square. The restaurant will be located on the east side of the new Tower Courtyard with a patio overlooking the area. McLean, who has previously worked with Huey’s, Soul Fish and Alchemy, is also assisting in the opening of Lettuce Eat in Germantown. …

Belly Acres promises to be an energetic, environmentally responsible restaurant. Operators will source ingredients locally and offer a variety of burger options to accommodate all dietary preferences from carnivorous to vegetarian to gluten-free. McLean plans to work with at least three local farms to provide the restaurant’s ingredient supply

The restaurant, slated to open in May, will have a kid-friendly design, “a mix between Willy Wonka’s farm and the City Museum in St. Louis.”
