NYC's Ketchy Shuby to Debut in West Palm Beach with Grand Culinary and Nightlife Venue

West Palm Beach locals and visitors are about to get a big bite of the Big Apple as New York City's Ketchy Shuby brings its culinary and nightlife flavor to South Florida. A 13,083-square-foot space at 114 S. Olive Avenue is being transformed into the latest hotspot, encompassing a full-service restaurant, nightclub, and a rooftop venue that's sure to become a mainstay for those seeking a high-energy dining and entertainment experience. This will be Ketchy Shuby's maiden venture into Florida, and with the largest food and beverage lease signed in Palm Beach County this year, the stakes are as high as their aspirations.

The energy surrounding the upcoming opening mirrors the city's own trajectory. Ketchy Shuby aims to not only adapt but also to up the ante in the local scene, as Mitch Heifetz of Newmark, who represented the restaurant in the leasing deal, noted. “The city continues to see tremendous momentum with new office and residential developments, creating a dynamic environment for hospitality growth. Ketchy Shuby’s arrival adds to a growing roster of high-profile restaurants in the city, reinforcing West Palm Beach’s reputation as a premier dining and nightlife destination,” Heifetz told CBS12. Touching down in the fall of 2026, Ketchy Shuby will join a burgeoning list of high-profile establishments to further fortify West Palm Beach as a go-to dining and social scene.

Founded in 2023 by Jamie Mulholland, a name that resonates with industry know-how, Ketchy Shuby is designed to be an immersive escape. The menu is promised to be a globe-trotting affair with New American dishes sprinkled with plant-based options and comfort food classics. But that’s just the half of it. When the sun sets, the restaurant will seemingly effortlessly transition into a lively lounge spiced up by the beats of local and international DJs. “My team and I couldn’t be more excited to bring Ketchy Shuby to West Palm Beach. The city’s energy, growth, and sense of community align perfectly with what we’ve built in New York. Securing the largest food-and-beverage lease in Palm Beach County this year shows how much confidence we have in this market and its potential,” Mulholland explained to CBS12. 

Bringing their New York flair to a historic 1920s building, Ketchy Shuby is setting up in a prime locale, characterized by its proximity to CityPlace and other top dining and entertainment options. The Commercial Observer points out that this new project adds to Downtown West Palm Beach's growing collection of experiential dining destinations—a fact that has not gone unnoticed by foodies and nightlife connoisseurs alike.
