We’re always bummed when we have to announce local restaurant closures, especially when it’s a place that we really love. We’re taking a look back at some of the bars and restaurants that have shut their doors in 2025.
Before you say, “hey! What about all the new places that have OPENED this year?” Don’t worry… we have an ongoing list of those, too! And the good news is that THAT list is longer than this one! You can see photos of the new Eastern Iowa bars and restaurants that have opened in 2025 HERE!
Take a walk with us down memory lane as we remember some of the awesome Corridor-area bars and restaurants that have closed in 2025, and let them serve as a reminder to keep supporting local businesses that you love!
