The Fayetteville Dwarf House at 221 Banks Station, open since 1991 and built to replicate Truett Cathy's original Dwarf Grill in Hapeville, will temporarily close Friday, Nov. 6, FOX 5 Atlanta reports. Restaurant leadership says it is preparing for "what's to come in 2027"; no reopening date has been announced.
