Who knew
Usher had a wine bar in Atlanta? Well apparently not too many, since the place has already shut down.
He opened The Grape in 2006, and had grandiose plans of taking his brand worldwide. Not so much. The bistro/bar failed to re-open its doors after New Years, and didn’t get their liquor license renewed. Not much you can do at a wine bar with no booze…
Usher’s parent company for the business, Grape Enterprise Group, also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Ouch! Well maybe this will teach Usher a lesson to just stick with what he does best! He’s still one of our faves. And just because you like wine, doesn’t mean you need to open your own bar!
