In addition to our normal news coverage, What Now Atlanta is tracking ways Atlanta’s businesses are adapting to the novel coronavirus and the challenges it brings to brick-and-mortars.
Marietta Square Market on Friday, May 22, will reopen its dining room, but with two fewer tenants.
Bread and Butter and Street Taco have permanently closed in the food hall, Marietta Square Market in a statement Thursday to What Now Atlanta.
“Due to the financial impact of the shutdown, Bread and Butter will unfortunately not be re-opening this location,” the company said.

the gentrification of Mexican food is a tragedy. I’m sure these tacos will be wildly overpriced, and please don’t put goat cheese in my guacamole.
You’re so wrong about this. For hundreds of years we Mexicans have been enjoying so much more variety in food than the rest of the world. Until very recently, all you could find is the same Texas and north Mexican cuisine. It’s been great seeing so much more variety now. If you want the cheap texmex there’s still plenty around but many of us are happy to see a wider variety.
Looking forward to this addition as Street Taco Taqueria was underwhelming, especially when there were better Mexican options in the area. Haven’t been there lately but was a weekly regular at the Market before COVID closed everything down in March.
