Heather points to this notice on Kitsch’n 155’s website…

Dear family, friends and faithful Kitsch’n followers,

We are very thankful to have found so many new friends and to have been welcomed into such a great community. You have greeted us daily with your smiles and eagerness to enjoy our food and fellowship. It has been a pleasure to serve you and be part of your daily lives, and an honor to have been part of your celebrations as well.

As many of you know we are a small family business and have made family a priority throughout this adventure. In continuing with that theme, Randy has been offered an opportunity to work in another family business, and we are taking advantage of that opportunity. Saturday, March 9th was the last day of operation for Kitsch’n 155. We could not have done this for the last 2 years without the help of our great team members who have worked side by side with us daily, and have become part of our family. We will leave with many great memories of our time here and would like to thank you all for coming along on our ride down 155!

Sincerely,

Randy and Lisa Stewart

This is a bit north of the Decatur city limits, but this 1969 Arby’s building – most recently an Athens Pizza Express – has finally revealed its latest incarnation – Kitsch’n 155!  (Here’s a similar looking Arby’s, turned into a car dealership.)

They’re website is already up and running – though no detailed menu yet.  However, a couple blurbs on their Yelp! page give some background.  First a short history…

We’ve taken some of our favorite parts of dining out and combined it with how we cook at home for our family to provide Tasty Tacky Fun to the Decatur Community. We had been searching for the right location for our new venture when we came across this tacky old building that was an old Arby’s from 1969. We looked at it and saw what it could be, and our vision has come to life. This old building will catch your eye with its arched roof, nostalgic design and bright colors. We embrace the tacky. You’ll enjoy this retro road trip to a simpler time.

And as for menu items…

*Our “Everyday Menu” includes items like burgers, chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, salads, chili, fresh cut fries and sweet potato fries.  *Our “Today’s Menu” that will have our blue plates and sides for that day. Items like pot roast, fried chicken, meatloaf, pork chops, country fried steak, roasted asparagus, greens, squash casserole, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, creamed corn, and many more.

The same Yelp! page says they open sometime this week.  Also this at-night pic gives a slightly better look at the interior decor.
