Panera Bread The Avenue East Cobb

The Avenue East Cobb management announced late Friday afternoon that its stores that are non-essential will be closed through April 13, due to the Georgia shelter-in-place order issued by Gov. Brian Kemp.

The order begins is effective from 6 p.m. Friday through 11:59 p.m. April 13.

“Select restaurants” at The Avenue will remain open, with takeout, pickup and delivery service only. They are Kale Me Crazy, Olea Oliva, Menchie’s, Panera Bread, Smallcakes and Tin Lizzie’s.

Other restaurants at The Avenue, including Drift Fish House & Oyster Bar and Stockyard Burgers & Bones, closed before the state order and a Cobb state of emergency declaration that goes through April 24.

The Michael’s craft store and the Simply Mac Apple computer store will remain open with reduced hours.

Non-essential “personal touch” businesses have been ordered to close, although many in East Cobb—hair salons, spas, barber shops, etc.—had already closed before that order.

During the shelter-in-place period, citizens are asked to stay at home, except to do essential shopping for groceries, food and medicines, to help with the care of children and the elderly in their families and act on behalf of the health and safety of those in their households.
