Every Restaurant and Bar Opening and Closing This Week

The evening of Thursday, April 22, was bittersweet at Charcoal Bistro, which held an employee appreciation night to say goodbye to the restaurant. The place was as packed as it could be with tables still six feet apart, and nearly every group had a plate of Philly cheesesteak egg rolls in front of them. Revenue from all food and drink sales was split among the employees, so they pocketed a little extra money along with their wages and tips that night. Charcoal Bistro has served Old South Gaylord for the past four and a half years, but closes tonight (Saturday, April 24) — so you still have time for one last dinner.

In the Berkeley neighborhood, FlyteCo Brewing added a coffee shop called Altimeter Coffee Co. at the front of its taproom, offering Queen City Coffee Collective drinks and pastries from Black Box Bakery. Altimeter is serving coffee from 6 a.m. to noon, at which point the beer starts flowing.

Mici Handcrafted Italian, which started life in 2004 in Denver, has opened its first location outside the metro area. Mici's sixth location is now up and running in Colorado Springs.
