Mark your calendars for the grand opening of Peckish Pig’s brewpub on March 20. The Howard Street restaurant and brewery announced the date on its Facebook page Tuesday.

The 9,000-square-foot space at 623 Howard St. is owned by Debbie and Jamie Evans, who previously helped run the Celtic Knot. Debbie Evans, who was also a co-owner, sold her stake in that restaurant to business partners last year.
