Seafood restaurant, office space coming to Belville

BELVILLE, NC (WWAY) – The owner of Cape Fear Seafood Company hopes to break ground next week on a new multi-use building in Belville.

Evans Trawick first opened Cape Fear Seafood Company in Wilmington in January 2008. He currently has locations in Porters Neck and Monkey Junction, now he’s bringing the restaurant to northern Brunswick County.

“Our business is growing and it’s a good fit market-wise for us. It’s an underserved market for what we do. Not a lot of restaurants in that area. We’re upscale casual dining, there’s not a lot of competition. We’re excited to keep growing and to offer our brand to a new group of people over there.”

The building will house Cape Fear Seafood Company on the first floor, as well as a Tropical Smoothie. The second floor will be available for office space.

Trawick hopes the restaurant will open by late April or early May.
