K&W Cafeterias announced that after 88 years they will be closing their doors, effective immediately on their Facebook page.
The post read in part:
K&W has always been more than a restaurant – it has been a gathering place, a home for Sunday traditions, and a warm table for millions of families across generations. We are deeply grateful for every guest who walked through our doors, shared a meal with us, and made us part of their lives.
K&W Cafeterias opened in 1937 in Winston-Salem and has been a family-operated chain restaurant business ever since. The company filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2020.
There are eight locations in North Carolina and one in Virigina.
The full statement announcing the closure read as follows:
We are sorry to announce that after proudly serving this and many other communities for years K&W Holdings Group LLC will be CLOSED PERMANENTLY. All existing locations closed effective 12/1/2025. We thank you for your support throughout our years in business.
