Locally owned Smoke & Maple Gastropub is set to bring rustic-refined dining to Avenir Palm Beach Gardens.
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla., Jan. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Located within Avenir Town Center, locally owned Smoke & Maple Gastropub will open its first-ever location, joining a growing mix of dining and lifestyle offerings designed to serve residents of the Avenir community and the surrounding Palm Beach Gardens area. The restaurant will offer a rustic-refined dining experience, welcoming everyone from casual happy hour guests to diners seeking an elevated night out with a yen for high-end cuisine or cultural comfort foods.
"As a Palm Beach Gardens local, I remember watching the Avenir Town Center project take shape years ago, and when the opportunity came up, we knew we wanted to be part of it," said Nick Lanier, co-founder and owner of Smoke & Maple. "We wanted to bring something unique and elevated, but approachable to the area, while paying homage to our roots here in Palm Beach County."
With a team bringing more than 100 years of combined restaurant experience, Smoke & Maple will blend high-end cooking techniques and classic dishes influenced by cuisines from around the world, reimagined through what the team describes as "rustic refined." Led by Chef Dave Schroeder, the menu will feature daily rotating oysters, the Smoke & Maple smash burger and locally sourced seasonal ingredients.
The restaurant will seat a total of 167 guests and feature an indoor-outdoor bar with bifold windows, allowing guests to be served seamlessly from either side. The interior design will blend rustic and lightly industrial elements with an Old Florida feel, incorporating subtle tributes to Florida history, the Everglades, and the area's golf culture.
"What makes us unique is our combined knowledge and restaurant experience in Palm Beach County. We understand what the residents here want in a dining experience, and we look forward to giving back to the community that has been so good to us," Lanier added.
As lifelong Palm Beach Gardens residents and restaurant industry veterans, the founders and culinary team see Smoke & Maple as a way to give back to the community that shaped them by creating jobs and providing opportunities for young workers and hospitality professionals to develop skills and build long-term careers in the industry.
Smoke & Maple is targeting a late spring 2026 opening, with additional details, including opening events and menu highlights, to be announced closer to launch. The restaurant is planned to open at 12325 Northlake Blvd., Suite 130, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33412.
