The CharleyHorse is back in Munster, Ind.

Years after the original restaurant closed its doors near Calumet Avenue and Ridge Road, a new CharleyHorse opened last month at 8940 Calumet Ave. in the former Charlie’s Ale House.

The Munster restaurant was originally supposed to be called Savard’s Hall of Fame with former Black Hawks star Denis Savard lending his name to the project. He pulled out of the deal in January.

CharleyHorse also has restaurants in New Lenox and Tinley Park.

The restaurant is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday, with brunch from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
