Schlotzsky's, 1305 Knox Abbott Drive: May 2024 2 comments
This Schlotzsky's looks less "closed" than the Dutch Square location, especially given that they still have their parking lot placards out, but still, given what happened there, I would be surprised to see it open again.

Schlotzsky's, 529 Bush River Road: May 2024 9 comments
When Schlotzsky's was on Parklane I made it a point to eat lunch there once a week. It wasn't that the veggie sandwich was that good in and of itself (it was ok), but the fact that I really liked the sourdough buns, which were always a nice change from other sandwich places.
When that location closed, I noticed that some of the staff had made it to this location abuting Dutch Square, on the corner of Bush River & North Arrowwood Roads. In the event given how far it was from home, this location never made it into my regular rotation, and I probably only ate there a half dozen times over the last ten years. I liked the fact that they had a Cinnabon concession, though I think I only partook once.
Driving by lately, I had noticed that the Cinnabon part of the sign looked to have been painted over, and recent reviews suggest the place was having other problems, but it's still a shame to see them go (though Google marks the closing as temporary, so we'll see).
Looking at the other closings for the chain, it appears that at some point they dropped the word "Deli" from their name, something I just noticed.

Fusco's Market, 2900 Dreher Shoals Road Suite A: 22 May 2023 1 comment
Fusco's closed on a temporary basis last summer, but was open again by the end of June 2022. This time they are gone for good as a market, but they continue to prepare lunch and do catering from the adjacent Tavern On 6.
On 19 June, they announced on their Facebook that a new operation, Roxanne’s Market will be opening in their old location on 1 July.
Here is the post announcing their closing, and here is The State on the closing.

UPDATE 4 October 2023 -- As mentioned in the comments, now Roxanne's Market:
Steve's #1 Sub Contractor, 1471 Platt Springs Road: May 2023 3 comments
This storefront is known to Google as Steve's Deli of WeCo for some reason or other, and appears to have been in business as recently as a month ago.
I don't believe I've ever had a Steve's sub, though there have been several around town for years. Jimmy Johns is my go-to, although Subway is OK. I probably ought to try one sometime, zooming in on the menu shows an All Cheese, which with Add bacon is a good place to start.
