KENNESAW'S DOG HOUSE CLOSES

a new Colombian restaurant opens in this location.

This is the 6th restaurant I know of in this location. It has always been a poor site for any restaurant and it is no surprise that after 1 year 10 months (9-16 to 7-18) that the Dog House is closing.

I ate there often when it was both the Boxcar Cheesecake Cafe and shortly after that TJ Bryans (same ownership and staff).

The location always had poor parking, cramped interior and back then a limited kitchen, don't know what the kitchen is like today.

In a year or so the Kennesaw Library branch will close with the opening of the large Regional Library in Acworth and for a bit the parking should be resolved. But it still remains a poor site for any restaurant.

JUST OPENED IN LATE SEPTEMBER 2016

in downtown Kennesaw, Ga. This location has now had at least 4 restaurants in this space. Kennesaw Dog House, On A Roll, T J Bryans' and the Boxcar Cheesecake Cafe. Limited parking and a small restaurant area are problems. The location is across a small parking lot from the Kennesaw branch of the Cobb County Library.

Kennesaw, GA 30144

11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Closed Sunday - Opened in September 2016

This restaurant replaced 'On A Roll' which replaced T.J. Bryan's and before that it was called The Boxcar Cheesecake Cafe.

It has not been a great location for restaurants, hopefully this one will last longer.

This restaurant will now reopen as Kennesaw Dog House, same owner as On A Roll. As usual parking there is a problem as the Kennesaw branch of the Cobb County Library is just across the small parking lot.

"ON A ROLL" Gourmet Sandwich Shop To Open Soon Downtown Kennesaw

You might recall the downtown Kennesaw restaurant "The Boxcar Cafe" and "T J Bryans" http://theboxcarcafe.blogspot.com/, both run by the same people (Natasha, Marie and T J Bryan) at 2893 N. Main Street, just across the parking lot from the Library.

Unfortunately it failed both times, but now after being empty for some time a new gourmet sandwich shop is about to open in the same location.

It is called "On A Roll" and the owner is Anthony Valvo. I note that there is an Allstate Insurance Agent of this name and also there is a man by that name on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/anthony.valvo.5/about

============================================================

As of 1/19/15 the shop is cleared out except for some restaurant type items seen on the sideboard. It is possible that a sandwich shop will be going in shortly.

The Kennesaw Watch

FYI: T.J. Bryan's will be closing their present location on Main Street in downtown Kennesaw, on Friday, October 5, 2012. They will be open for Lunch, Monday - Friday from 11:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. up until the last day they are open for business.

But, the good news is that Bryan and the staff are not leaving the area. There are plans for a larger restaurant, with more parking, a more extensive menu, and possibly adult beverages served. We will miss TJ Bryans, however as one door closes, another door will be opening sometime next year.

The Kennesaw Watch will post more details in the future. Good luck Bryan!!

Between the closing of the old T J Bryan's restaurant and the opening of 'On A Roll' this unit was rented for one year by '1 Little Meal', a charity which provides lunches for kids.
