Annette Jones+FollowBoston’s dining scene sees big changesThree beloved Boston restaurants and bars are closing their doors this July, shaking up local favorites in Somerville, East Boston, and the Waterfront. Southern Kin is leaving Assembly Row after nearly a decade, but hints at a comeback in a new neighborhood. Cafe Iterum in East Boston, known for its sustainable approach, shut down due to rising costs—though Chef McPherson hopes for a future return. On the Waterfront, Pasta Beach is closing to focus on expansion elsewhere, with Beacon Hill’s 1928 set to take over the space. How do these closures affect your go-to spots? #Food #BostonEats #RestaurantClosures00Share
Mary Williams+FollowAustin’s food scene faces big changes this JulyAustin’s food scene is taking some real hits this July, with several beloved spots closing their doors—some after decades of serving the community. Z-Tejas, a Tex-Mex favorite, wrapped up 36 years with its last location in Kyle shutting down. Jewboy Subs is gone too, but there’s a silver lining: the owner is launching Jewboy Sliders soon. Jim Jim’s, the iconic snow cone shop, will serve its last treats this summer so the owners can finally take a family break. Rising rents and tough economic times are behind many of these closures. Which spot will you miss most, and what do you think this means for Austin’s dining future? #Food #AustinEats #RestaurantClosures00Share
BreezyStardust+FollowAnother favorite spot gone overnightIt’s wild how one day you’re grabbing brunch at your go-to spot, and the next, it’s just…gone. Bobcat Bonnie’s in Ferndale closed overnight, and now only one location is left (and even that one’s future is shaky). Makes me wonder: with so many local restaurants shutting down so suddenly, are we losing the places that make our neighborhoods feel like home? How do these closures change where we eat, hang out, or even connect with friends? #Business #localbusiness #restaurantclosures00Share
Michael Alvarez+FollowLA’s Iconic Eats Are Disappearing FastIs anyone else feeling the heartbreak? LA just lost three more legendary restaurants—My 2 Cents (soul food fave), Mother Tongue (wellness hotspot), and Michelin-starred Shibumi. It’s not just about food: between pandemic fallout, Hollywood strikes, wildfires, and ICE raids, the city’s dining scene is getting hit from all sides. Some spots are pivoting to catering or pop-ups, but it’s wild seeing so many staples vanish. Anyone else missing their go-to spots? #Food #LosAngelesEats #RestaurantClosures10Share
dianefrank+FollowZ’Tejas Shuts Down for Good 😢Z’Tejas, the Tex-Mex spot we all hit up for cornbread and fajitas, just closed its last location after 30+ years! Rising costs and post-pandemic habits hit hard, and they couldn’t keep up. It’s not just them—other chains like Red Lobster and TGI Fridays are struggling too. Feels like the end of an era for eating out with friends and fam. Anyone else gonna miss those margaritas? #Food #ZTejas #RestaurantClosures20Share
Mary Williams+FollowHouston’s Food Scene Is Taking HitsIs it just me or does it feel like every time you blink, another Houston restaurant is closing? June alone saw 11 spots shut their doors, including MF Lobster, Bistro Menil, and Churrascos River Oaks. Rising costs, slow summers, and just too many places to eat are making it rough out there. Did your favorite make the list? Let’s pour one out for these local legends. 🍽️ #Food #HoustonEats #RestaurantClosures00Share
Robert Daniels+FollowL.A. Foodie Faves Shutting Down?!Did you hear? June hit L.A.’s food scene hard—four beloved spots closed! Bang Bang Noodles said goodbye to Culver City (but you can still get your noodle fix downtown). Verve Coffee Roasters left Spring Street, Here’s Looking at You in Koreatown served its last meal, and Elf Cafe ended a 19-year run in Echo Park. Some are still around at other locations, but it’s wild seeing these foodie icons disappear! Anyone else feeling nostalgic? #Food #LAeats #RestaurantClosures00Share
Valerie Hall+FollowPhoenix Eats: 20 Closures in One Month?!Metro Phoenix just lost nearly 20 restaurants in June—yep, even long-timers like Chart House (35 years!) and Joe’s Crab Shack. From pizzerias to coffee shops, spots all over the Valley are shutting down, mostly due to lease issues and ownership changes. Some will reopen with new vibes, but others are gone for good. Anyone else feeling nostalgic (and a little hungry) thinking about all the memories at these places? #Food #PhoenixFood #RestaurantClosures00Share
xwest+FollowFlorida Restaurants Closed Over Gross ViolationsThree Florida spots just got shut down for some seriously nasty health violations—think cockroaches, rodent droppings, and swarms of bugs. China Master and The Tremont both cleaned up fast and reopened, but College Park Diner found so many roaches they decided to close for good. There’s even a handwritten ‘Toodles’ sign on their door. Would you ever go back to a place after hearing this? #FloridaEats #RestaurantClosures #HealthInspection #Health #BodyHealth00Share
Michael Morgan+FollowNoodles & Co. Closing More Stores Than ExpectedNoodles & Company just dropped a bombshell—they’re shutting down up to 21 locations nationwide, way more than they first planned! While some spots are closing, they’re also rolling out a revamped menu with wild new mac & cheese flavors (Buffalo Chicken Ranch, anyone?). Meanwhile, burger chain Mooyah is expanding like crazy. The pasta drama is real—will your local Noodles & Co. survive the cut? #NoodlesAndCompany #RestaurantClosures #FoodNews #MacAndCheese #MenuRevamp #Food30Share
