Grand Opening/Grand Closing: Peter Thomas’ Bar One Atlanta ‘Temporarily’ Shuts Down… [PHOTOS]

Sep, 29 2014 | Written by ATLien
Cynthia Bailey of The Real Housewives of Atlanta strikes a pose with her hubby, Peter Thomas, as they celebrated Thomas’ birthday last Saturday evening (September 27, 2014).

Bailey’s RHOA castmates: Demetria McKinney, Kandi Burruss and Claudia Jordan, all came through for support as well as several of the couple’s friends and family members.

If you recall, Peter had been in dispute with the owners of the Memorial Drive property…

Well it seems the parties couldn’t come to an agreement so Thomas has chosen to move the Atlanta location to another Atlanta venue.

The cute couple have a lot to smile about with the expansion of their ‘Bar One’ franchise to North Carolina, however it was a sad day for patrons in Atlanta, with the celebration being the final party for Bar One’s Memorial Drive location.

More photos + details below…

I missed the party but stopped by to take a final sad face selfie in the Bar One mirror….

For the record, Peter has leased a new location for Bar One Atlanta and says that he expects to be closed about 2/3 months during the expansion. He plans to reopen around New Years (if not before).

- Robin L. Hudson
  
  I´m not the biggest Peter Thomas fan myself, but he is expanding his franchise. He´s relocating the Atlanta spot to Buckhead (I think), and he has one in SC, and Charlotte. Gotta give the man his props.
  
  fay_jay
  
  I agree. It’s not like he lost the business, in this case, he just found himself in a bad situation. If he’s moving to Buckhead, he might make more money anyway, except for the rents going to be expensive.
- Iam Brittney
  
  No shocker
- Josh Thompson
  
  Man get a job!
- Joah Starqs

- Winnie Baldwin
  
  I hope they fix the floor when you walk in.. It´s like a boobie trap. There´s holes in the floor covered with carpet as if that´s gonna stop by volumptuous self from hitting the floor :/
- Chaka Dee Dennis
  
  How? It was open last night…bar one ain´t going anywhere
- Marsha MzDiva Reaves Feggins
  
  Reading is fundamental why do people comment without reading the damn article. It clearly states they moving to another location in the ATL!!
- Trayvariz Williams
  
  Better call John Taffer…. (Bar Rescue)
  
  Sunni_dee
  
  I hope that when Peter finds himself in his new location he will take advantage of the young, smart and savvy people looking for work in Atlanta that have plenty of hospitality experience. He needs to surround himself with a team of people who love the job and have a strong skill not only for skill but for inventory management so that the profit can roll in. More importantly, he needs to broaden the demographic which his business appeals to if he wants to make money in ATL.
- Sandra Nelson
  
  Wow
- Kim Kizito
  
  Where is the SC location? I knew about Charlotte NC.
- CeeGee Preau
  
  Why are they trying to live this glamorous life… stop it… get your coins first then spend it wisely… you obviously dont have enough coins to start nothin!!!! Smh
- Sharese Johnson
  
  IT´S MOVING TO ANOTHER LOCATION HATERS!!! So your negativity has to come back another day
  
  Like he gone stay open! Chile please!
  
  Yeah and after that location he’ll move to another and another and another!Peter Thomas is the only person in America who has a grand opening on one side of the flyer and an eviction notice on the other.

  Your screenname made me spit out my coffee!!!!
  
  ISAIDIT!
  
  LOL IKR!
- Kandye Morgan
  
  Unfortunately when he opened, we knew it would close. Hopefully Peter will get it together.
- Laurie Kemp
  
  Y´all can´t be reading the article with these comments… Because if y´all did, y´all would realize this is no fault of his own.
  
  fay_jay
  
  Thank you. People just like talking without the facts.
- Winnie Baldwin

  XoXo
  
  Oh that makes a lot of sense. So the devil closed Bar One, and God is going to open up 2 bars? I didn’t know was in the bar opening business. Am I missing something?
  
  fay_jay
  
  I think this person is making reference to how the location didn’t work because of the landlord, who was facing foreclosure. It was a bad situation, but not Peter’s fault. I think he’s re-opening in Buckhead, which is a better location anyway.
- Mikki Blackwell
  
  Not surprised
- Dinah Price
  
  Peter is a dam loser.
- DeborahtheDuchess Authoress Brooks
  
  Shady boots, Peter
- Melia Morris
  
  Nene I´mthankful Morris SMH??

  Maybe it’s the angle, but Keith is looking rough than a mug!
- Crystal Lilflychic Vincent
  
  It´s obvious Peter just can´t effectively run a business…..
- Tari Ogoun
  
  They still have more money than i do so i don´t care.
- Kozy Korner Katering
  
  apollo gone to jail…the money stop rolling in….
- Anne D Brannon
  
  Cynthia is going to be broke right along with him. He doesn´t seem to have the business acumen it takes to keep a business in the black… Smh
  
  fay_jay
  
  The closure isn’t his fault. The owners of the property face foreclosure. This has nothing to do with the establishment being in the black or the red. Peter is re-opening in a better location.
- Toni Jones
  
  NO, He´s opening a new barone in ATL but in another location. The owners of that location went in forclosure.
- Syd S Carter
  
  Well if Cynthia is pregnant. ?.he needs to be at home w/ his wife
  
  Tia
  
  Peter 60 with 8 kids right? Cynthia DONT DO IT!
- James Milbry
  
  Michelle Brown NOT SURPRISED!!!!!!!!!1
- Sonja Kennedy
  
  With every TV reality show in ATL that visit this bar, Peter still couldn´t keep it open. Hire a damn accountant to oversee the finances because clearly, Peter can´t manage money. Broke jokers to the left….Rick jokers to right!
- Kellie Martin
  
  He needs a new profession
- Gee Thomas
  
  Peter ur shit always get shutdown!
- Connie Jelks-Bailey

  He better step in on the show and make some money with the wives next season. Hell he had problems last season with the bar we could all see it was gonna crash under near a bad looking neighborhood.
- Pamela George
  
  Shocker… NOT
- Mario Sanders
  
  Everything that he touches turns to shit. Frfr
- Tonya Bailey
  
  Businesses come and go. That´s entrepreneurship 101. He´s the boss not the employee. Are you?
  
  fay_jay
  
  Thank you. People are talking about him being broke, but not even reading the article. This was not due to a lack of funds, but to the owners foreclosing on the property.
- Lassal Inungu
  
  MY SIS WORKS AT BARONE..THEY ALL HAVE JOBS..THEY ARE RELOCATING..THE LANLORD DIED AND THE FAMILY IS SELLING THE PROPERTY.
- Shirelda Velitz Happyasicanbe
  
  This fool has the worst lick with night clubs and businesses period. It´s such an embarrassment that he won´t just stop before he ends up bankrupt. Poor Cynthia, married a broke, irresponsible, abusive, idiot who is slowly dragging her down with him.
- iknowyallgonhatemycomment
  
  damn ya’ll are some haters on this website. all that bashing going on above & how many of ya’ll have ever opened anything? he’s opening a new bar didn’t anyone dumb behind read that????
- Tonya Bailey
  
  Lassal Inungu people look for the worst case scenario in others. They expect Peter Thomas to do bad instead of good.
- Sharon Bennett
  
  Maybe going into business ain´t his thing
- Monica Gladden
  
  What, just get out of the bar business. Work for someone successful and stop wasting Cynthia´s money. Dam
- Monica Gladden
  
  And if the property is being sold why cant he just buy it?
- I.c. Watkins
  
  Bar One was awesome…location sucked!

- Marcella AuthenticandOriginal Morrow
  
  Peter is a looser just like Apollo Run Cynthia Run
- Loving This Site
  
  I have gone there before. The wait was too long for no reason, the food was tasty but overpriced and the service was not that great. I did like the music and decor but did not feel the need to return.

  Why Hate On Peter

  What does Peter bring to the marriage. So far, he brings 1)Failed Businesses, 2) He Frequents Strip Joints (Wasting Cynthia’s Money to get his Boner lusted-up); and 3) He has a massive ego, and stays in the Housewives business whether they ask him or not. Looks ARE NOT important, but he doesn’t have that in his favor either. So far, the only thing he’s bringing to the marriage is MORE Debt!
