Downtown Millbrook is about to welcome a new dining destination. Big Mike’s Steakhouse will open its seventh Alabama location on January 14 at 3251 Main Street, bringing 35–40 full and part-time jobs to the community and adding new momentum to Millbrook’s growing downtown corridor.
Known across Alabama as a destination restaurant, Big Mike’s Steakhouse is intentional about choosing smaller markets, particularly downtown districts, where its presence can help drive foot traffic and support local economic activity.
Mayor Al Kelley praised the opening as a win for both residents and the city’s long-term growth strategy.
“Big Mike’s Steakhouse choosing downtown Millbrook is a strong vote of confidence in our community,” said Mayor Al Kelley. “This investment brings new jobs, attracts visitors, and adds to the vibrant atmosphere we are continuing to build along Main Street. We are excited to welcome Big Mike’s to Millbrook.”
Big Mike’s Steakhouse owner Mike Cole said Millbrook stood out as a natural fit for the brand’s values and vision.
“We’ve always believed that great food belongs in the heart of a community,” said Mike Cole, owner of Big Mike’s Steakhouse. “Millbrook’s downtown has the character, energy, and growth we look for when selecting a new location. We’re proud to become part of the Main Street story and look forward to serving this community.”
The Millbrook location will operate on the following schedule:
Tuesday–Saturday: 4:00 p.m. – until
The addition of Big Mike’s Steakhouse aligns with the City of Millbrook’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its downtown core by attracting businesses that create jobs, increase foot traffic, and enhance quality of life for residents and visitors alike.
