The word is out! Welcome Murry's to The District, Downtown Columbia!

Murry’s Restaurant, a part of the Columbia community since 1985, is pleased to announce a new downtown location in the space currently occupied by Sycamore.

“Our friends, Sanford and Jill Speake, are looking forward to their retirement. The legacy and impact that Sycamore leaves behind will be deeply felt by the restaurant community. We are grateful for this opportunity and for the support that Columbia has shown us for over 40 years,” said Murry’s owners. “This new location provides an opportunity to serve more guests while maintaining the welcoming, classic jazz club atmosphere our patrons expect. We have great respect for what the Speakes built at Sycamore and look forward to contributing to the vibrant downtown energy.”
Murry’s invites the community to follow their progress on social media and looks forward to welcoming guests to the new location in the fall of 2026.

Downtown CoMo is built on more than concrete. 🌟

Our Gateway sculpture says it all. 'Vibrant.' 'Entrepreneur.' 'Homecoming'. Words that describe what 600+ businesses and thousands of residents make us every single day.

Block by Block logged hundreds of service hours this quarter. Grants went out. Ambassadors showed up. The District showed up.

The numbers prove it. This downtown is thriving.

An alley, two friends, and the perfect cup. ☕

That's the magic of Coffee.

Open 7AM to 10PM, tucked right into the heart of The District, Shortwave isn't just a coffee shop. It's where downtown slows down long enough to feel like home.

Next time you're out, pull up a chair and stay a while.
