Closing Time on 5th Avenue

Over the past few days several businesses on 5th Avenue in the Slope have announced that they’re calling it quits. It doesn’t appear that rent hikes are the sole cause of the pileup of shutterings, though they may have contributed to a couple of these closings:
Biscuit BBQ: The restaurant, which relocated from Flatbush Ave., took the place of the former Night & Day diner on President Street. No word on why the restaurant has decided to close. Will the back room jazz venue live on?
Nancy Nancy: The card/knick-knack store has been open for nearly 10 years. According to the shop’s blog, the landlord pulled the lease, but NN’s stuff will still be on sale at NancyNancy.com.
Cocotte: The French restaurant, which opened in 2002, in saying goodbye because of “rising rent and an inability to make a go of it financially,” according to Gowanus Lounge.
Hollywood Video: The large video rental store closed last weekend. The chain movie-rental biz is in the process of closing hundreds of stores nationwide. With the vacated Eckerd space only a block away, that means there’s two pretty large retail locations now available on 5th.
Actually Roys chicken alone would work – by far the best Fried Chicken around….makes a trip down the NJ Turnpike a treat
I dumped HIM!!
He was too queeny.
2:47=Dumped by Flight001 principal, but refrfeshingly supportive.
hell, Dinty Moore Beef Stew would be better than the crap Biscuit pawned off on the public.
Here is a good idea for any “new” Biscuit – buy Roy Rogers Fried Chicken recipe add Carsons Mail order Ribs and Costco Rotisserie Chicken and reopen – Food quality will increase 1000% and so will business
kensington???
nothing registers…
I hope they do something to class up the interior.
It looked HIDEOUS as Biscuit BBQ.
1200, 2 bed in kensington off church ave. 5 mins to train, 10 mins to park, 2 mins to Shenanigans.
Biscuit is renovating and changing names, chefs and floor staff. Keep your eyes open in about a month and it will be all shiny, new and much, much better.
