Roswell's Tap & Six Closing Its Doors Sunday

ROSWELL, GA — Just after celebrating its second anniversary in December, Roswell's Tap & Six craft beer market and bar will be closing its doors for good come Sunday.

When 2020 began, the restaurant's owners were hopeful, with many events and plans in place. They knew the old adage that the first two years in the industry are the hardest. But then last week, the restaurant posted a letter online saying: "it's last call on June 14."

"Of all the challenges we expected to face, a pandemic with such devastating economic effects was not one of them," they wrote. "The bar/restaurant business is tough on a good day. It requires a steady flow of customers in order to be profitable and pay team members for their hard work. Tap & Six was conceived around the idea of gathering - a place for friends and family to come together to enjoy beer and spend time connecting. Unfortunately, that doesn’t align with our current reality.

"After slicing and dicing the numbers and considering every possible business model and scenario, we did what all wise, small business owners do and consulted our Magic 8 Ball. It confirmed what we knew: 'Outlook not so good.'"

Tap & Six is open Thursday from 4-9 p.m., Friday from 3-9 p.m., Saturday from noon to 11 p.m., and Sunday from noon to 7 p.m. Carne 250 will be there Saturday and Sunday from open until he sells out. The Tap & Six kitchen will be open for light bites during business hours. Jon Oswald will be playing live music from 5-7 p.m. on Sunday.
