More than thirty Hardee's restaurants have closed across Georgia in recent weeks after one of the brand's largest franchisees got into a legal dispute with franchisor CKE Restaurants. ARC Burger, the franchisee behind the closures, previously operated 77 Hardee's restaurants across eight states.
Jack in the Box has finally popped up in Georgia. The San Diego-based burger chain announced plans in June 2024 to enter Georgia with 15 units as part of its "strategic expansion across the Southeastern United States.”
After just a few months in business, Magnolia's Kitchen & Cocktails is closing in Sandy Springs. The restaurant is located at The Prado (5600 Roswell Road #230), just inside the perimeter.
Battle & Brew announced December 22 that it has permanently closed its location at The Battery Atlanta. The roughly 11,000 square foot game bar and restaurant opened at the mixed-use project in January 2024, nearly two years after it was first announced.
The Toco Hills location of indie vendor business Westside Market is closing on December 31. The market opened in March 2018 and was the second location to open of the locally owned business. The roughly 14,000 square foot space was far smaller than the flagship and original location on Ellsworth Industrial Boulevard which measures about 85,000 square feet. Real estate sources tell ToNeTo Atlanta that the Toco Hills location struggled financially for years and that its size limited its sales potential. The store was reportedly on a short-term lease that was not renewed, with the landlord (Edens) opting to pursue a long-term lease with another, as yet undisclosed, tenant. Following its closure at Toco Hills, the original Westside location will remain open as well another on Holcomb Bridge Road in Roswell and one in Greenville, South Carolina.
