The restaurant business has been hit pretty hard by the crisis the world is dealing with at the moment. Over 8 million restaurant employees have lost their jobs all over the United States. While a good amount of restaurants in the U.S. are reopening, they usually offer outdoor eating only with a limited amount of customers. All the same, thousands that have “temporarily” closed when the lockdown began might not be able to afford to reopen. Here is an updated list of the most popular eating places in America that won’t be opening again.
Arizona: Barrio Café Gran Reserva
The award-winning vegan-focused has been opened since 2016, but will now be closing for good.
Chef-owner Silvana Salcido Esparza was devastated, saying that “zero funding and coronavirus” were the main factors involved in her decision to shut down. She added that closing her place will allow her to save her other Phoenix restaurant, Barrio Café.

California: Swingers
The 27-year-old late-night hangout spot on Beverly Boulevard ended its service once and for all in early April. Swingers was described as having a “classic mid-century coffee shop vibe and…wide menu”.
The owners also closed down a couple more bars in their ownership.
