Crossroads Grille

What happened after

Renamed Gaddy Shack after its Bar Rescue makeover; closed March 2018, reportedly because owners Robert and Ashley Gaddy shifted focus to another bar they own (DONKS in Nashville). An Instagram post states: "Closed: March 2018...It is now a taco bar."

Closure date on record: 2018-03

What happened on the show

A twerking, drinking, brawling staff was threatening the once-thriving bar of Ashley and Robert Gaddy, leaving its future in doubt. At Crossroads Grille in Antioch, Tennessee, the owners had let their crew's out-of-control behavior overrun a room that had been doing well, and Taffer had to straighten out both the staff and the management before the dysfunction sank a good business. The rescue worked to restore discipline and reset the standards the Gaddys had allowed to slide. Taffer reopened the venue as Gaddy Shack, a playful rebrand built around the owners' own name, betting that a reset crew and a sharper identity could return a once-successful room to the footing it had before the partying took over. The Antioch bar had genuine goodwill to protect, which raised the stakes of getting a wayward staff back in line before the room's regulars gave up on it.

After the cameras left

Crossroads Grille, rebranded Gaddy Shack, closed in March 2018. The closure was not a failure of the rescue so much as a choice: owners Robert and Ashley Gaddy reportedly shifted their focus to another bar they run in Nashville, and an Instagram post states the room closed in March 2018 and is now a taco bar. That single independent post holds the closure at medium confidence, with the taco-bar successor unconfirmed by a second source. The Gaddys' bar wound down as they moved on, rather than collapsing under the dysfunction Taffer had addressed.
