Atlanta based quick-serve burger joint Cheeseburger Bobby's has closed its location in the Roswell-Wieuca shopping center on Roswell Road in Buckhead. The restaurant, which opened in 2013, replaced FIVE GUYS in the 2,499 square foot space. Local sources indicate the restaurant did not provide advance warning of its closure, but by Monday the windows were covered in brown paper and a notice confirming the closure was posted.
"We want to thank everyone for allowing us to be part of your community for the last 5 years. Unfortunately, we have decided not to renew our lease."
Cheeseburger Bobby's is the second quick-serve burger joint to close in the area recently, following the closure of Burger 21 in Chastain Square last July. The former Burger 21 space is now occupied by Pho Dai Viet, a Vietnamese restaurant with other locations around metro Atlanta.
Another Cheeseburger Bobby's that opened shortly after the Buckhead location, remains in business at 5975 Roswell Road in Sandy Springs, in the same center as The Flying Biscuit Cafe, Kaiser's Chophouse, and JINYA ramen, among others.
In addition to the Sandy Springs location, there are a dozen other Cheeseburger Bobby's spread across Georgia from Kennesaw and Peachtree Corners to Cartersville and Hiram.
