Rocky Run to Wild Wings

The word on the street is that Buffalo Wild Wings is negotiating to take over the former Rocky Run restaurant space on Dobbin Road. Rocky Run has been closed since August of 2008.

The source of this rumor is the same source who once told me that Potbelly would take over the former Atlanta Bread Company space on McGaw Road. I wondered what had happened to that deal. It turns out that Atlanta Bread Company is still paying rent on the vacated store and still has a few years of lease term remaining so the landlord isn’t exactly motivated to replace them with just any retailer. They have the luxury of waiting for “the right deal,” whatever that is.
