MARBAR Shows Sign It May Reopen

Steve sends in this pic of a new sign in the window of the recently shuttered Marbar along East Howard Avenue.

Seems like the rumor that it may reopen – reported by the AJC – may be true.

  1. I hope something new does go in there–it’d be a shame for such a lovely space to sit idle.

  2. Wish the old Carpe Diem space just down Howard from MARBAR and Kimball House would also get a tenant, too. Loved the bar setup there.

    1. With the two new housing developments going up along E. Howard (between Kimball House & the old Carpe Diem space) and the planned Dairy Queen apartments, I’m guessing it’s only a matter of time. The townhomes closer to Kimball House (“East Howard Place”) are being advertised at $589k.

  3. There was an article in the AJC last week maybe with details. I believe it is going to be southern food with a twist.

  4. copied from the Google and in an article yesterday on Eater:

    Decatur: The space that formerly housed MARBAR will be taking on a new concept soon. Deborah VanTrece, executive chef/owner of the Catering Company by VanTrece, will open a restaurant called Twisted Soul. VanTrece shared some details with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Bob Townsend:

    “I have been working on this for some time, since I closed my restaurant, Edible Art Cafe in East Atlanta,” VanTrece said. “I am so excited to bring my Southern flair to the Decatur area.”
