The Buckhead Diner — a staple of Atlanta for more than 30 years — has closed its doors for good. The restaurant was closed due to COVID-19, but the Buckhead Life Restaurant Group announced last week that the iconic diner will not be reopening.

Georgians said goodbye to the home of popular blue cheese chips on social media, sharing memories and thoughts on the restaurants departure.

Here are some of the posts about the Buckhead Diner closing.

Some of my older family members loved going to Buckhead Diner whenever they visited from Philly. Hopefully it will reopen somewhere else at a later time

The iconic Buckhead Diner, a staple for 30+ years, host to countless celebrities, has permanently closed its doors ‘to focus on other new … endeavors.’ The land was sold for $6MIL to Trillium Management. Loved the salmon salad and positive vibes here😋 https://t.co/ohroyTv9ck

@chefpano so sad to hear that The Buckhead Diner has to be closed. I am glad to hear several dishes will be taken to other restaurants. Where are the petite filets with mushrooms on a potato leak cake going to be served? Please let us know. We will be joining you soon.
