Horrible. So much about what changed during Covid and has not changed back is ruining the country IMO* - By Rich October 30, 2025 at 02:29:04 PM

Kind of weird here given number of Fed workers, other than being emptier perhaps restaurants seem to be doing fine* - By Egghead October 30, 2025 at 01:15:42 PM
It's a thing... I believe even Real Seafood, a 40 year staple in AA, is likely closing * - By Spirit October 30, 2025 at 12:44:20 PM
- I don't think they are closing as much as moving locations, but yes, from my understanding it's due to the high rent cost* - By TBW October 30, 2025 at 12:55:32 PM
  - Who would pay the higher rent? * - By Rich October 30, 2025 at 01:01:01 PM
    - Great question. It's gotten ridiculous* - By TBW October 30, 2025 at 01:19:19 PM
      - If you are a landlord there, you need to check yourself. With the difficulties that restaurants are having - By Rich October 30, 2025 at 02:01:23 PM
- gotta be more than 40 years....I graduated in 1981 and remember it being in AA when in school* - By ajs October 30, 2025 at 12:53:59 PM
It's going to get worse. Male lfp decline + net outmgration.* - By ftb October 30, 2025 at 12:35:27 PM
Ive never seen a bigger spread between the cost of eating out vs cost of cooking at home. It�s hard to justify $150 for 2 at a marginal restaurant. Id rather just cook** - By xcheck October 30, 2025 at 11:59:15 AM
Same here. - By GritsGoBlue October 30, 2025 at 11:52:11 AM
- Was really sad to see Eats go. Eater Atlanta has been a really depressing "read" lately. (nfm) - By WolvBlue October 30, 2025 at 12:02:52 PM
  - True although this remains an incredible eating city. - By GritsGoBlue October 30, 2025 at 12:47:30 PM
    - our neck of the woods just got a korean follow-up to spring. looking forward to trying it out this winter** - By kal October 30, 2025 at 12:58:08 PM
      - The glow up of Church St. in Marietta has been dramatic and wonderful to see. Gianni and Mac's is legit good. Haven't tried the Mexican place yet. - By WolvBlue October 30, 2025 at 01:37:07 PM
    - Agreed! (nfm) - By WolvBlue October 30, 2025 at 12:55:05 PM
It is happening here frequently as well. - By Alpo October 30, 2025 at 11:47:57 AM
Up at our cabin in rural Wisconsin the only grocery store had to close for 3 days due to lack of workers. - By ChiWalker October 30, 2025 at 11:38:23 AM

Is it the economy (layoffs, inflation) or lack of immigrant workers? Probably both* - By Rich October 30, 2025 at 11:34:29 AM
- This has been an issue in Portland since Covid shutdowns. A lot of the restaurant workers who lost their jobs must have found other gigs as the pool of workers has been noticeably lower since then.* - By asquared October 30, 2025 at 12:40:18 PM
- Probably all, but who knows. Within economy also is the government shutdown (nm) - By danny October 30, 2025 at 11:36:03 AM
  - And tariffs - By Rich October 30, 2025 at 11:37:01 AM
    - China is paying the tariffs (nm) - By danny October 30, 2025 at 11:44:56 AM
