It appears that Grocery Bar might be closed for good this time.

The store, which had been open on Sundays before, was closed yesterday evening.

And an employee said she got a text message Friday from management that the store would be closing for good that day at 6 p.m.

The store’s Facebook page also says “permanently closed.”

On Feb. 5, officials said via Facebook that the store would be closing. Soon after that, signs appeared on the doors saying the store would not close. A manager said that leaders changed their minds and decided only to close the kitchen part of the business.

Leaders posted this on Facebook Feb. 12:

Just to clear up the confusion: Grocery Bar is open but as a grocery store only. The kitchen is closed for now, so the hot and salad bars are not being used. The sale over the weekend did empty the shelves, but we have been ordering and restocking the shelves all week! As we evaluate and reinvent ourselves, we’d love to hear from the community so we know what you would like to see in the store. The plan for right now is to leave the kitchen closed and focus on filling the shelves with the groceries our community needs and wants. Thank you for the ongoing support!

Nooga.com reached out to a manager who said that the owner, Sam Turner, would be the person who could comment about this. Nooga.com left a message for Turner, but we haven’t heard back.

Last week, chef and restaurateur Daniel Lindley issued a statement to clear up his connection to Grocery Bar. Click here to read more about that.
