Chapin Ale House, which is located at 912 Chapin Road, opened its doors on Monday, June 8, as noted by the business on social media. The sign in front of the restaurant on Monday noted it is \u201cnow open.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The new restaurant is located at the site of the former J. Peters Bar & Grill in Chapin. Well-known local restaurateur Jason McDowell, who also owns the J.R. Cash\u2019s locations in Chapin and elsewhere, as well as Cash\u2019s Chicken in Chapin, bought the former J. Peters location and has reimagined and renovated it as Chapin Ale House, which McDowell described as a \u201cfood forward\u201d gastropub in a previous interview with The State.<\/p>\n

McDowell also purchased Rusty Anchor and Catfish Johnny\u2019s, the side-by-side indoor restaurant and outdoor bar & grill at 1925 Johnson Marina Road in Chapin, on the shores of Lake Murray. He rebranded Catfish Johnny\u2019s as the Nauti Turtle Bar & Grill.<\/p>\n
