A salad and wrap business in Chapel Hill has closed its doors for good.

Just Salad, a chain restaurant located in Village Plaza at 111 South Elliott Road, features a sign posted on its door saying the location is permanently closed. While the official Just Salad website marks the Chapel Hill location as open, the Google business profile for the specialty salad shop confirms it is closed.

The New York-based restaurant lasted two years in Chapel Hill, having held its grand opening in September 2020. The space is housed in the same building as several other food options at Village Plaza, like CAVA Mediterranean, the Japanese-cuisine Genji Express and a Whole Foods grocery store.

When it opened, Chapel Hill’s location of Just Salad was just the restaurant’s third in North Carolina. Since then, an additional location in Charlotte has opened.
