UPDATE Nov 22, 2021: A new restaurant is coming to this location.
Sad news for lovers of home cooking… Dixie Cafe announced today that they are planning on closing all their locations. This notice comes after 3.5 decades in business.
A source at the Benton location of the restaurant confirmed this with MySaline. The Benton restaurant at 17306 Interstate 30, will have its last day on Wednesday, December 6th.
CEO of the company, Allan Roberts said, “After over 35 years in business, we have decided that we must close our restaurants. It’s a very difficult operating environment for full-service, family-oriented restaurants. We have seen declining sales combined with increasing costs that has made this difficult decision necessary.”
This was quick – the website listed in a Google search turns up an error, and the restaurant is already listed as “closed” on the Google map.
There were 12 Dixie Cafe locations in Arkansas.
