CheeseWalla Grand Opening Comes to Orange Street Alley

The City of Redlands will co-host a grand opening celebration for CheeseWalla on Saturday, April 29.

From the City of Redlands: The City of Redlands will co-host a grand opening celebration for CheeseWalla from 1 to 6 p.m. Saturday, April 29, in the Orange Street Alley and along 5th Street between Citrus Avenue and State Street. The opening marks the first restaurant expansion along the alley.

The City completed construction of the alley improvements in July of 2015, creating a destination point for visitors, the community and artists. Since then it has become a contributor to the overall economic vitality of the downtown area and has drawn the interest of several restaurant owners for outdoor dining opportunities.

Saturday the City will celebrate the first restaurant to open adjacent to the Orange Street Alley. CheeseWalla has secured a lease with the City to utilize the alley for an outdoor dining area. During their dining experience, patrons of CheeseWalla will be able to enjoy the historic attributes, alley improvements and the City’s downtown atmosphere. The event includes a grilled cheese donut eating contest, live music, Augie’s coffee and cupcake sales.
