h/t Decatur Metro

The Saporta Report has a nice write-up  on Melton's App and Tap, with a special emphasis on the family who runs it.

Melton's Reopening TODAY [Dec. 30]

As posted in their Facebook page and website, Melton's reopens today.

Their Facebook page features their latest health inspection. It appears the kitchen's definitely ready for food prep, and possibly clean enough for surgery:

UPDATE 3: Per the AJC, Melton's has decided to reopen. As soon as we have additional information, will share!

UPDATE 2: AJC reports.

UPDATE: Pet Supermarket has permission to reopen. The judge admonished them to do a better job at securing food they throw away, and to patch up one remaining hole.

MANA will follow up with the Meltons as to how we may support their business. In the meantime, neighbors and anyone who shops at Medlock Plaza: please keep an eye out to ensure that Pet Supermarket is properly maintaining the surrounding area and dumpsters in a manner that is both lawful and considerate of nearby business and homeowners.

As has been reported in local news [AJC, WSBTV, Creative Loafing] and the blogosphere [1, 2, 3] Melton's app and tap, our neighborhood pub, has been forced to close its doors due to circumstances beyond its control. Melton's is a Medlock staple: it is a long-time friend and good neighbor, is one of the few restaurants we can walk to, and its staff is known for its friendliness and expertise. At Melton's, we meet friends, family, neighbors and co-workers; we may stop for a quick bite but know we are welcome to linger.

Medlock neighbors and customers from all over stand behind Melton's and hope for a speedy and fair resolution.

Although a "Keep Meltons Open" Facebook group has been created by the faithful, please also contact the property owner, Larry Wilensky, to

• encourage him to do the right thing
• expedite Melton's reopening, and 
• ensure that Melton's is restored in all ways.
