The “dinner and a movie” concept temporarily closed its doors in February after a fire and remained closed through the pandemic. The 760 seat, seven-screen theatre, has since been removed from the company’s website and with the closure two Georgia locations remain in Alpharetta and Peachtree Corners.

Reps for CinéBistro this week did not immediately respond to a request for comment by What Now Atlanta, but in April said the bankruptcy filing was a result of “the economic crisis precipitated by the coronavirus pandemic.” At the time, Cinemex Holdings USA, Inc. and Cinemex USA Real Estate Holdings, Inc., which own and operate several CMX CinemasCinéBistro, and Cobb Theatres in Georgia, did not announce plans to close any of its theatres.

    1. Huh? Not a Trump fan, but how is Macy’s closing an underperforming location any president’s fault? Brick and Mortar retail has been suffering for many years, much longer than this administration….

  1. Just to be correct: Macy’s DID NOT take over Rich’s! Federated bought Macy’s. Closed existing Macy stores. Federated decided to take the Macy’s name and make it a National Department Store. Please get your facts correct!

    1. I hate the fact that Macy’s is being removed from our Community. It is unfortunate that we have to go of our way to shop. A lot of us remember when it was the top place to shop when it was Rich’s. What can we do to save it. This is when we need a person with means or a celebrity to step up. Also, retirees and Seniors will suffer.
