'''Sluggo's''' is a [[Wikipedia:Veganism|vegan]] café, bar, and music venue, located [[Downtown]] at 101 S. [[Jefferson Street]].

==History==
The club was established by [[Terry Johnson]] in [[1988]] as '''Victor Hugo's'''. The name was changed to Sluggo's in March [[1990]], when [[Nick Flynn]] joined as a partner. (Sluggo is a character from the [[Wikipedia:Nancy (comic strip)|''Nancy'' comic strip]]. He is a poor boy from the "wrong side of the tracks.")

Originally located at 319 North [[Tarragona Street]] (now the [[HandleBar]]), the club moved to [[Intendencia Street]] in [[1993]] and again to [[130 South Palafox Street|130 South]] [[Palafox Street]] in [[1995]]. It left the Palafox location in June [[2000]], citing rising rent from the building's landlord, who wanted to bring in new businesses, and hostility from the [[Downtown Improvement Board]].<ref>"[http://www.inweekly.net/article.asp?artID=31 Sucker Punch]." ''Independent News'', June 4, 2004.</ref> In [[2002]] Johnson announced plans for a new complex called "The Lost City" at 1602 West [[Garden Street]], a "punk rock mall" of which Sluggo's would be a part,<ref>"Downtown loses one bar, gains old favorite." ''Pensacola News Journal'', January 31, 2002.</ref> but the project fell through.

After being closed for several years, Sluggo's reopened at a new location (site of the old [[Caribbean Market]]) on [[June 7]], [[2004]], with [[Wikipedia:Will Oldham|Will Oldham]] performing.<ref>"Sluggo's reborn in Brownsville - the hippest part of town." ''Pensacola News Journal'', June 1, 2004.</ref>

On [[November 28]], [[2009]], Sluggo's had the grand opening of their second location, "Sluggo's North Vegetarian Cafe" at 501 Cherokee Blvd in Chattanooga, TN.

In April, 2010, Sluggo's relocated to their current location at 101 S. Jefferson Street in Downtown Pensacola.

-On October 7, 2016, owner Terry Johnson announced the closing of Sluggo's on the business's Facebook page. Johnson cited a "long battle with the landlord over power in the building" as the reason for shutting down the location. She also said construction from Studer Properties' large apartment complex across the street influenced the move. Johnson assured patrons that a new Sluggo's location could arrive soon, "just a little closer to the outskirts of downtown." Sluggo's closed its doors for the last time on October 9, 2016.
-Sluggo's has yet to reopen in Pensacola, and remains permanently closed.
