East Cobb Biz Notes: Cobb Antique Mall relocates to Canton Road

Cobb Antique Mall

After 15 years on Cobb Parkway at Gresham Road, the Cobb Antique Mall has relocated to Canton Road and is having what it’s terming a “soft” opening on Monday, starting at 10 a.m.

The new address is 2800 Canton Road, at the corner of Piedmont Road, in Suite 900 of the Piedmont Village Shopping Center (where a driver’s license office used to be). The phone number is 770-590-8989. The business received its new occupancy license on Jan. 9.

The Cobb Antique Mall closed at its old location on Dec. 15 to prepare for the move. The new store has 10,000 more square feet and according to management will feature many of the same vendors. Here’s more information for prospective vendors, with a Jan. 31 deadline for a year’s lease that includes either free rent or no commission taken for the year.

The hours for the Cobb Antique Mall are Monday-Saturday 10-7 and Sunday 12-6.

Salata to open Feb. 1

As we noted on Friday, the Salata restaurant at Providence Square (4101 Roswell Road, in the former Uncle Maddio’s spot), is opening on Feb. 1. At The Avenue East Cobb, Smallcakes, a cupcake and ice cream store, opened last week.

Also at The Avenue, J. Crew closed on Sunday as part of a larger reduction of stores for the clothing and apparel chain, and the Justice girls clothing store also will be closing soon.

Aspens halts Sunday brunch

The East Cobb location of Aspens Signature Steaks and Seafood (2942 Shallowford Road), is “taking a break” from serving Sunday brunch, but the announcement didn’t indicate when it might resume. Dinner service continues seven days a week starting at 5 p.m.

New East Cobb businesses

The following businesses are the first in East Cobb to be granted operating licenses in 2018:

  • A Healthy Liquid Seasoning, 2501 E. Piedmont Road, Suite 144 (groceries);
  • Anytime Fitness, 3595 Canton Road, Suite D (fitness center);

Salata to open in East Cobb on Feb. 1; Smallcakes opens at The Avenue; J. Crew closing

Salata East Cobb

It’s been a busy week on the new restaurant front in East Cobb. In addition to the opening of Ming’s Asian Kitchen we posted on Wednesday, Salata, the long-awaited salad and healthy foods eatery that’s been preparing space in Providence Square Shopping Center, has announced that it will open for business on Feb. 1.

The announcement came late Thursday on the Salata Twitter feed as well as the company’s Facebook page, although there was no news posted when we went by earlier today.

It’s the third Georgia location for the Houston-based Salata, which is at Atlantic Station and Glenridge Point. Salata has nearly 70 restaurants, mostly in Texas, as well as California, Illinois and Oklahoma.

J. Crew The Avenue
The J. Crew store at The Avenue is one of five to close in Atlanta this month.

The salads can be made with a selection of more than 50 vegetable toppings, 10 dressings, fruits, cheeses, fish, chicken and turkey and egg, croutons, bacon and pasta and protein options. In addition to salad wraps, Salata serves soups, desserts, lemonade and teas.

Here’s the full menu.

The hours of operation will be Monday-Friday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday-Sunday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Salata is located in the freestanding former Uncle Maddio’s space at 4101 Roswell Road, Suite 1100. The phone number is 470-200-0876 and online ordering will be available.

Comings and goings at The Avenue

At The Avenue East Cobb, there’s good news and bad news: Smallcakes, a cupcake and ice cream shop, has opened in Suite 1550, next to the soon-to-be-shuttered Justice, a girls clothing store, and two doors down from Panera Bread.

It’s the second attempt in East Cobb for Smallcakes, which had a location at 2424 Roswell Road. The chain operates around 200 stores in 31 states.

J. Crew, the clothing retailer, is preparing to shut down operations at The Avenue. According to a report at Tomorrow’s News Today, it’s one of five Atlanta-area stores to close this month, and the last day of business is Sunday. When we went by today, however, the store was nearly empty, as packing up was continuing.

East Cobb business update: What’s coming soon to Providence Square

Five Below, Providence Square

A few readers have asked about what’s coming in the former Uncle Maddio’s Pizza spot at Providence Square Shopping Center. We went by recently and renovations are still underway for a new Salata location, but there’s not an estimated time of opening beyond the fall.

Salata is making its way into the Atlanta area, with a recent opening at Atlantic Station and another restaurant planned for Sandy Springs. Uncle Maddio’s closed at Providence Square earlier this year.

The discount store Five Below is moving into a former party store space between T.J. Maxx and Rack Room Shoes. Opening is scheduled for the spring and hiring has begun.

Five Below also has locations near Town Center, Sandy Springs and Woodstock.

Do you know of a new business coming soon to East Cobb? Wonder what might be going into a vacant space? Get in touch with us! E-mail editor@eastcobbnews.com and we’ll update the community.
