Lumberton s first brewpub, Ark Brewery, Restaurant & Pub, to open in early May
Three years ago, Joe Johnston and Kenny Davis were working as vendors at Red Top Farm Market when they expressed an interest in opening a brewery together. Now the two are set to open the first brewery actually, a brewpub in Lumberton Township in early May with plans for an innovative menu and live music.
As they worked their tables side by side, Johnston said to Davis, “One of these days I’m going to give you a phone call. Pick up the phone and we’re gonna make it happen.” A year later, Johnston texted Davis about a building on Ark Road.
