CLEVELAND, Ohio – Experienced restaurateur and investment advisor Rey Galindo is bringing a new brewpub to Shaker Square in mid to late October. Coyoacán Taqueria & Brew, named for his family’s hometown just outside Mexico City, will be in the space formerly occupied by Balaton restaurant. It will be an anchor in the northwest quadrant of the historic, 95-year-old plaza.

The word “Coyoacán” has its roots in the Aztec language, meaning “place of coyotes.”

Galindo and his business partners are currently working with crews to renovate the two main rooms where diners will gather. They are removing benches and booths left from Balaton and finishing a windowed interior room that will show off four brewing tanks.
