Here’s Why A Popular North Carolina Restaurant Closed Just Six Months After Opening
It was over before it really ever began. Here’s why a popular North Carolina restaurant closed just six months after opening. The Famous Toastery at 7741 Colony Road in South Charlotte has closed its doors for good. And this news comes from the chain’s social media page.
The Colony Road store was the Charlotte-based chain’s eighth restaurant in the Queen City and it opened in June. But Mike Sebazco offers an explanation to our source, The Charlotte Observer, he says they quickly learned the space was simply not large enough. Sounds like the wrong space and possibly the wrong time. At the time of this restaurant’s opening, six more were being developed. One of those is in Florida.
My go-to Famous Toastery is in Lake Wylie, South Carolina just before you go into Clover. I meet friends there on my way home from work or just stop in and eat alone. Cannot resist those eggs benedict. According to the Charlotte Observer, the first restaurant opened in Huntersville in 2005. Now there are 25 of them spread along North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia.
If you liked the Colony Road location and are upset it’s leaving. Don’t worry. There is another one just 4 miles south in Ballantyne. Breakfast and brunch places have become more and more popular all over the country. Does the name Dan Levy ring a bell? He is the co-creator of one of my favorite shows of all time, Schitt’s Creek. Dan has a brunch-based reality show simply called “The Big Brunch”.
Space and bad timing. That’s why a popular North Carolina restaurant closed just six months after opening. There are so many brunch spots to choose from in the Charlotte area. It seems like they are popping up everywhere. To get more details check them out from our source, The Charlotte Observer, right here.
