Say goodbye to these 8 Reno-Sparks food and drink places
Several restaurants have gone to the great kitchen in the sky — or are ready to cross the pearly gates — as eight food and drink spots in Reno-Sparks join the latest list of closures. The places run the gamut from a longtime downtown breakfast joint to a well-known coffee brand that was barely open for a year. One even lets patrons drink and throw sharp objects. Seriously. Another is a chain that’s part of a string of closures making news nationwide. So which food and drink places will locals be bidding “au revoir” to? Here is the latest rundown of restaurant closures for Reno-Sparks. Outback Steakhouse, 3645 S. Virginia St., Reno Located just north of the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa parking lot, the Reno Outback Steakhouse is one of several casualties arising from the bankruptcy of a major franchisee for the national chain.

Reno’s first Paris Baguette to hold soft opening later this month
This story was updated to add new information about the soft opening date. Reno-Sparks residents can finally say bonjour to the area’s first Paris Baguette. The popular bakery chain will hold a soft opening on Thursday, Nov. 19, one day earlier than initially planned, co-franchisee Jim Yoell told the Reno Gazette Journal. A grand opening will be held at a later date. It was a journey that took two years for Yoell and wife Eva. Both had to deal with challenges from finding potential locations that Paris Baguette approved to being blocked by competitors at some of the locations they considered. The Yoells ultimately picked a retail center on the busy corner of Longley Lane and South McCarran Boulevard known as McCarran Marketplace — formerly the Air Center Plaza. The permit for the location was approved last year but remodeling took a long time as the bakery converted two stores into its new space. “That just happens when you convert two suites into (one that’s) 6,200 square feet,” Yoell told the Reno Gazette Journal during a visit to the space in August. Staff also had to undergo training and the new location had to pass multiple inspections. Founded in South
