Reached this morning, here’s what Elsa’s co-owner Jason Hemmert said about the applications:
“We are being proactive in applying for the liquor license, since there are not many available in that area, and we are in early negotiations for the space, which is currently BW3's in Springboro.”

“Though not finalized, we are working hard at it and hope this will be the next great Elsa's location. We have been looking for some time to go down that way with our concept.”

Elsa's, which operates four restaurants and sports bars in and around Dayton, is putting the finishing touches on its fifth location, Elsa's Corner Cantina, at 6204 Wilmington Pike in the Sugarcreek Plaza in Sugarcreek Twp. The space previously housed Caramella's Italian Kitchen, and, before that, Murphy's Irish Pub and Barleycorn's.
