German restaurant taking over former downtown Orlando hotspot gets opening date

Schmankerl Stubn is set to open in downtown Orlando on May 16, 2024. 

Last June, FOX 35 reported that a popular downtown Orlando restaurant had permanently closed and it would be replaced by a German scratch kitchen concept. 

That restaurant, Schmankerl Stub'n, announced on social media recently that it finally has an opening date – May 16.

Schmankerl Stub'n has taken over the space left vacant by Neon Beach at 131 N. Orange Ave. #104, which closed in May 2023. Signs posted outside the restaurant at the time of its closure cited lease issues, but did not announce its closure on social media.
