Sinners & Saints will replace A.K. O'Connors in the Court Center building. The bar is expected to open the last week of May.

Sinners & Saints is co-owned by Bill Mahon (who also co-owns Mickey's Irish Pub locations and Beechwood Lounge) and former Maddy's Place owner Brian Maddy. Mahon said he wants Sinners & Saints to complement Court Center bars Liars Club and People's Court.

Sinners & Saints will have a rock 'n'roll theme, but Mahon doesn't plan to have live music. He has an extensive collection of rock memorabilia and autographed guitars from his personal collection (including Pete Townshend and Bruce Springsteen instruments) that will decorate the walls.

"We want to play the name into the rock feel," Mahon said. "There are a lot of good rockers, and there are the bad."

The name will also play into the menu, with healthy food for Saints and no-so-healthy for the Sinners. Lunch will be served during the week.
