When did the Alexandria Arthur Treacher's close?

I know the Fairfax Circle one disappeared earlier this year - but I thought there was one on Rt1 in "Faux" Alexandria. Evidently that's been gone for some time too.

Anyone know when it disappeared?

Evidently the one in DC is gone too. I guess the chain is finally dying.

I don't remember, since I rarely went there. I prefer Long John Silver's, because I think it had a higher fish-to-batter ratio. The last time I did go to that Arthur Treacher's, it took a LONG time to get the food out.

It's been gone for several years.

Good fucking riddance. Used to be good but I went to the Fairfax Circle location before it closed and the food was awful, the help lazy and surly, and there was a homeless bum sleeping/passed out in one of the booths and nobody who worked there seem to give a shit.

Any Capt D's round NOVA, They are good for cheap fried fish, shrimp, clams. I may have seen um but "did not see um" mistaking them for another place that was a stomach ache and was not Arthur Treachers. Maybe some Long Dong something.

>and there was a homeless bum sleeping/passed out in one of the booths

Damm Good Sure Sign the food is Cheap And Good!

Fishmarket in Old Town has great fried seafood. I would love to get a Captains Platter and a dozen raw oysters some day after I win the lottery. I said great.. Not Cheap. Used to go in there quite a bit before I retired. The Italian Seafood stew "Cah Chew Co" was great too but sorry I cant spell it. Its on the menu. They only had schooners years back, kinda lousy beer not Slitz but something with a S I think..popular but not as good as "Hobo Junction" stuff

When Mr Ray owned it and for years after he died, new owners changed Fishmarket round in some ways not so good, but they do have many bottled beers today and many more menu items. .

I'll take a "Hobo Junction" Beer Please waiter with the food when it comes. "Natural Light" Best tasting beer on the planet with good seafood . pizza, spaghetti. A favorite in the trailer park on "Pay Day Steak and Beer Night" with some "Johnny Paycheck and Patsy and a bit of Earl to liven things up on the record player.

I used to eat at Long Dong Silvers until I heard something about someone finding a pubic hair in their coke there. I seem to recall it was a politician or judge or someone of similar ilk.
