Tyber Creek will open its new location on June 30
Why it matters: It's hard to recreate an atmosphere when a business moves, but the team behind Tyber Creek aims to bring the essence of the beloved original spot to life in a new location.
Context: Tyber Creek over the years became a destination for sporting events and live music. Its former home, at the corner of Tremont Avenue and South Boulevard, was routinely packed. That original location closed in March 2024 to make way for a new development.
Southern Land Company, a Nashville developer, plans to build a new tower with around 300 luxury rental units on the site where the pub used to be.
The team behind Tyber Creek will open a new business in the tower, they confirmed to Axios.
What to expect: The new Tyber Creek on Mint has a similar feel to the original. It even has the original downstairs bar.
Bordering the patio is a wall of reclaimed doors, sourced over the years from Connolly's, Dandelion Market, the OG Tyber Creek, and other businesses owned by Tommy Timmins, Maynard Goble and Kevin Devin.
There will be outdoor seating, a food truck serving traditional Irish pub fare like fish and chips, and a kitchen serving salads, charcuterie and flat breads. The food truck will also serve a spice bag, which is fries with peppers and onions — it's drink food at its best, the owners tell Axios.
The pub is also part of the Butterfly Highway, a statewide conservation restoration initiative that's restoring native pollinator habitats. Katie Hamm, who used to work at The Workman's Friend and is the owner of HammMade HammGrown, created the pub's outdoor garden.
The big picture: Tyber Creek's new location, a multi-building property that's walking distance from Bank of America Stadium, will open in phases. The first phase includes the building at the corner of Mint Street and Summit Avenue. It's roughly 1,900 square feet of interior space and 5,000 square feet of exterior space.
The wall of doors mentioned above will separate patrons from construction on phase two. The second building, which is roughly 2,000 square feet, will include the downstairs bar from the original location.
Phase three, which includes the third building, will house office space and room for events. The third building is roughly 2,200 square feet.
By the numbers: Phase one cost roughly $750,000, according to the owners. The total cost of the project is TBD.
Between the lines: The property has limited space where street-facing signage is allowed, the owners say, including one that had a mural honoring the late NBA legend Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gigi. A plaque is in place commemorating the mural.
What's next: A grand opening will occur after phase two, which is expected to be complete this fall. There is no timeline for phase three.
The bottom line: Right now, the focus is on opening the business's doors again. The owners say they expect the first few months to feel like a reunion.
Stop by: Tyber Creek is at 1501 S. Mint St. Hours are 3pm-2am on weekdays and 11am-2am Friday through Sunday.

July 2 is the deadline to file a claim for a piece of Apple's $95 million class-action lawsuit settlement over allegations that the voice-activated Siri assistant violated users' privacy by recording conversations. The big picture: Eligible individuals who purchased or owned Siri-enabled devices between Sept. 17, 2014 and Dec. 31, 2024 could receive up to $20 per device, for up to five devices. Eligible devices include iPhones, iPad, Apple Watch, MacBook, iMac, HomePod, iPod touch or Apple TV, court documents show. Lopez v.

Johnson faces new GOP revolt on Trump's "big, beautiful bill"
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) is facing an explosion of internal anger among his members over the Senate's changes to President Trump's " big, beautiful bill." Why it matters: The speaker has just days to pass the bill before Republicans' self-imposed July 4 deadline — which will require flipping dozens of "no" votes and overcoming numerous procedural hurdles. "Our bill has been completely changed ... It's a non-starter," Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) bemoaned to reporters on Tuesday, Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) said in a post on social media that he will introduce an amendment to the Senate bill that would delete all its text and replace it with the version passed by the House in May. One House Republican, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told Axios there are "well over 20" GOP lawmakers threatening to vote against the bill. State of play: The Senate voted 51-50 to pass their own version of the bill on Tuesday, with Vice President Vance serving as the tiebreaker. The bill would extend the 2017 Trump tax cuts and allocate funding for the president's immigration crackdown while cutting spending on Medicaid, food stamps and green energy subsidies. Zoom in: Right-wing House Republicans are upset that the Senate bill is projected to add more to the deficit than the House version would. "They're backing away from the spending cuts, the spending restraint. They're backing away from the reforms that we think makes the math work," Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) said in a post on X. Rep. Victoria Spartz (R-Ind.) noted that Johnson previously committed not to hold a vote on a bill that increases the deficit over a certain threshold, adding that "members will have a decision to make." Between the lines: Johnson told conservative lawmakers earlier this year that they could try to remove him as speaker if he couldn't deliver $1.5 trillion in spending cuts in the final package. "I've never lied to any of my colleagues, and I was trying to emphasize the point," Johnson told Axios in an April interview. The bottom line: Johnson vowed in a statement after the Senate vote that the House will "work quickly" to pass the legislation and get it to Trump's desk by July 4.

Chicago launches new tourism campaign to play up its "swagger"
Why it matters: The city's first major tourism campaign in three years aims to play up Chicago's "swagger," as Reynolds calls it, and push back against negative narratives about the city and state — especially those coming from the White House. Reality check: Like other major U.S. cities, Chicago is seeing fewer international travelers because of President Trump's travel bans and other federal policies, Reynolds tells Axios. Yes, but: " The other statistic is a lot of U.S. travelers are not traveling internationally as they had in the past several years, so there's an opportunity to try and recapture some of the domestic market to fill those gaps," Reynolds says. Zoom in: Choose Chicago created the slogan after speaking with more than 300 locals. It also consulted with focus groups of regular visitors and those who haven't been to Chicago in a while to learn what should be emphasized. The website features itineraries made by Chicagoans about food, neighborhoods and even a tour inspired by the Chicago-born Pope. Between the lines: Recent marketing campaigns have focused on bringing in leisure travelers, but Choose is also speaking to convention and event planners, international sports fans and locals. By the numbers: The agency's 2024 budget was about $33 million and tourism brought in $20 billion, according to Choose's annual report. Choose spent $640,000 over the last two years on creating "Never Done. Never Outdone," spokesperson Isaac Reichman said. The tourism arm gets city and state money, but also engages in private partnerships. In 2025, Choose has received $22 million from the state, $3.4 million from the city, $5.7 million from MPEA and $3.5 million from private sources. What they're saying: "This isn't just a marketing campaign. It's bigger than that. It's a rallying cry for everything today, our residents, our neighborhoods, the businesses, our workforce and, yes, our visitors," Reynolds said at the press conference. "We're the voice of our city, we're the narrative. We're the ones responsible for saying, and amplifying all things Chicago." Zoom out: The ad campaign will run in Atlanta, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, Brazil, Canada, Ireland, Japan, Mexico, and the United Kingdom.
