Construction is now vertical on the new Bobby Mackey’s in Wilder.
Plans for the new Bobby Mackey’s honky tonk-bar and music venue were unanimously approved at a Wilder Planning and Zoning meeting on June 22.
The plans call for an 8,400-square-foot single-story nightclub. The proposed building will be located in approximately the same location as the former building at 44 Licking Pike.
In March 2024, Bobby Mackey’s temporarily moved to 8405 US-42 in Florence after the century-old building began to show its age. The bar then sat vacant until it was demolished on Dec. 10, 2024.
At the Wilder Planning and Zoning meeting, the project engineer estimated the opening day to be a year from the June 22 meeting.
