Mr. Beefy's Subs and More, a Coral Springs restaurant on Wiles Road that was known for its Chicago-inspired menu, has closed after its owner Monica Pierre of Boynton Beach moved to Port Charlotte.

Why it matters

The closure of Mr. Beefy's represents the ongoing challenges facing small, independent restaurants in the Coral Springs area, where high rents and competition from larger chains can make it difficult for local eateries to sustain operations, especially when ownership changes hands.

The details

Mr. Beefy's Subs and More opened in 2020 under founder Rob Elbaum and developed a following for its Chicago-style street food menu. Tricia Lovett took over leadership of the eatery in 2022 and continued operating the restaurant until transferring ownership to Monica Pierre of Boynton Beach. Pierre kept many of the restaurant's signature items while also expanding the menu, adding seafood and other options alongside the sandwiches and hot dogs.
