Even More Bad News

Sorry for the back to back postings of bad news but unfortunately the recession keeps rearing its ugly head by bringing down another Buckhead restaurant.  A fixture in the heart of Buckhead near the intersection of Peachtree Road and Pharr Road directly adjacent to the Cheesecake Factory, the ESPN Zone was a great place for fun and to watch a game.  It was one of the first sports themed restaurants to offer such unique items as individual sound for game at each table and an assortment of fine leather chairs for VIP viewing areas.

Unfortunately, the cost of operating the restaurant in this economic environment proved to be too much for the Disney owned and operated venture and they closed it down last week.  Approximately, 140 people lost their jobs.  On the bright side it opens up a prime piece of real estate for another restaurant for the area so stay tuned.
