S&S is geared to an older clientele, and with that population getting smaller in the area, I imagine that S&S will move further out in the suburbs as younger families move into Embry Hills.įirst, we are a YOUNG family-not 'old folks'-and we LOVE eating at S&S! It is a tradition in our family, and we've taken our kids there to eat out since they were little (they're teens / college age now) and they LOVED it! 'WE' loved the family-friendly prices-a dinner at Cracker Barrel or even Golden Corral could easily run to $80 for our family of five, as opposed to half that at S&S, for VERY GOOD FOOD. Good things are happening in the area, Tucker, Northlake, etc.Ĥ. My guess is that Embry Hills is going to be a hot spot in the next few years, so this could be an investment by Kroger. Great neighborhoods that are just now being discovered by those who don't want to pay the home prices in Oak Grove/Northlake. You guys shouldn't deride the Embry Hills area as 'not able' to support an 'elite' grocery. I think that's what the poster meant by the 'new' Chamblee. Note on Chamblee - Chamblee is the new 'hot spot' for developers, like Brookhaven was 7+ years ago. Northlake/Oak Grovers don't drive to Embry Hills, and I don't think Kroger would be a draw from that side of town.Ģ. Embry Hills isn't very close to Northlake, so an 'elite' Kroger (never thought I'd use those two words together) could probably be supported at both locations. Getting a really nice new kroger is a wonderful thing.ġ. The close suburbs of Chamblee and Tucker are perfect. Decatur is maxed out and too expensive to buy in. The beautiful mid century homes and nice yards are a big draw for young people starting out. This area has become somewhat run down in the last coupla decades, but as the old people die out, young people are moving in. If S&S wants to stay, they'll find a way. Kroger's expansion is good for the community. There are plenty of open spots on that property as well as the other center on the other side of 285. Moving them would be the best thing, but that is up to S&S. S&S may be an 'institution', but it's also old and gross. (The reason they don't have it at Tucker is the Shell station owner that refuses to sell. I am on the other side of C-T in Tucker and I shop at the Tucker Kroger, but I'll happily drive over to Embry Hills for a larger Kroger with better parking - AND GAS! We currently drive to Decatur to get gas. I am THRILLED to hear that Kroger is expanding at Embry Hills.
