Crave BBQ Set to Sizzle at Hall's on Fifth in Apopka

Downtown Apopka Welcomes New Barbecue Spot as Crave BBQ Moves In

Crave BBQ is gearing up to bring its signature flavors to downtown Apopka, taking over the space previously occupied by Butcher's Nook at Hall's on Fifth.

In a recent announcement, Crave BBQ shared, "Crave at Rock Springs is leveling up and rebranding into CRAVE BBQ at Hall's on 5th! We're bringing the real deal, no-shortcuts, melt-your-soul BBQ back home where it belongs."

Ella Duke, co-owner of Hall's on Fifth, expressed her enthusiasm for the new addition, stating, "We're excited to welcome Crave and to once again have a brick-and-mortar BBQ concept in downtown Apopka. We can't wait to see what Chef Rob brings to the food hall and the community."

While the official opening date is yet to be announced, anticipation is building among local food enthusiasts.

Crave BBQ's journey began as Crave at Rock Springs, offering a variety of sandwiches, salads, and more. The transition to Hall's on Fifth marks a significant evolution for the brand.

In April, Crave announced the closure of its Rock Springs Road location, expressing gratitude to its patrons: "As the door closes on this chapter of our time with you, we will always be appreciative of the unwavering support you have shown us. This is NOT a goodbye, this is a see you again soon!"

Following the closure, Crave continued to engage with the community by offering its renowned bread pudding with toffee sauce at Propagate Social House and serving BBQ favorites at the Market on Fifth.

With the upcoming opening at Hall's on Fifth, Crave BBQ will consolidate its operations, ceasing its pop-up services at Propagate and the Market on Fifth.

Hall's on Fifth, Apopka's first food hall, has been a hub for diverse culinary experiences since its opening. The addition of Crave BBQ is expected to further enrich the food hall's offerings.

Duke also highlighted ongoing enhancements to the venue: "We're in the process of upgrading our back patio to feature a new green space designed for experiences like movies on the lawn, fitness classes, and more. We're looking forward to those gatherings being complemented by the delicious smell of BBQ from the lawn."

As Crave BBQ prepares to fire up its grills at Hall's on Fifth, Apopka residents can look forward to savoring authentic, soul-satisfying barbecue in the heart of downtown.
