A multi-faceted business that bills itself as "a fresh take on the old food hall concept" quietly opened its doors a few days ago.

Mixed-use food hall and retail space Dunedin Mix at ​​990 Broadway recently celebrated its soft opening and welcomed a bustling, bead-wearing Mardi Gras crowd last Tuesday.

Currently, there are three culinary concepts open at Dunedin Mix: Polynesian eatery Huli Bowl and Rotisserie, Italian spot Al Dente and a globally-inspired tapas restaurant called Spoons.

According to social media, its fourth concept called The Green Table Smashbox—an extension of the popular Palm Harbor vegetarian restaurant—is expected to make its debut in a few days.

The centerpiece of the food hall's shared dining room is certainly its rotating bar called Circle 1852. The 360-degree circular bar is decorated like a traditional carousel and slowly rotates around while patrons sip on craft cocktails, beer and wine.

Dunedin Mix’s retail section includes women’s apparel store Era Boutique and a cookware shop called Epicurean Exchange. The multi-faceted space also hosts live music.

First reported by the Tampa Bay Business Journal last fall, the roughly 10,000 square-foot “French industrialist/mixologist" space was originally slated to open at the end of 2023. Owner of Paramount Construction Group Brandon Stanley—who operates Dunedin Mix alongside wife Ashley Stanley and mother Kristen Ernst—purchased the property for $680,000 back in 2018, according to TBBJ. They originally intended to construct residential real estate before pivoting to a mixed-used food hall project and have since invested more than $2.5 million into the project.

Dunedin Mix is now open from 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Tuesday-Wednesday, 11 a.m.-11 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, 11 a.m.-9 p.m. on Sunday and is closed on Mondays.
