Virginia-Highland Cafe Closing After Fiery Spat With Mega Landlord | Eater Atlanta
"After 13 years on Ponce de Leon Avenue across from the Hotel Clermont, this long-running bubble tea cafe says it is closing due to sharply rising rents and fees imposed by landlord Selig Enterprises. Management accused the landlord of "bullying" tenants and highlighted repeated increases to CAM (common area maintenance) and insurance charges—fees they argue are inappropriate for the property's type—which they say forced the decision. The shop remains open for now, has not set a closing date, hopes to relocate, and has invited readers to suggest potential new locations." - Henna Bakshi
