Another spot serves fried catfish only Thursday through Saturday, and its parking lot fills with trucks anyway.

However, beyond the loss of favorite gathering places, the closures have brought attention to another concern: the employees whose livelihoods depend on these businesses. Since August, at least six Cullman restaurants have announced or completed closures, including KFC’s south Cullman location, Puckett’s Restaurant, Wissota Chophouse, Lucy’s on 3rd, Augusta’s Sports Grill and Shrimp Basket.

A series of closures One of the first major closures came in August, when the KFC restaurant in South Cullman Shopping Center served its final customers Aug. 16.
