Applebees

With rising costs hitting hard, the local dining scene takes another hit as a Capital Region Applebee's will close its doors.

A line cook and a dishwasher got in a fight and then one stabbed the other at Applebee's while they were working on October 1 in the Town of Niagara. When police got to the scene, the suspect still had the knife in his hand.

Surely Walker Hayes isn't the only one bummed about the news that a popular "date night" restaurant in Albany County closed its doors suddenly over the weekend. We are too.

A drink special in the Capital region we all can afford! Applebees has introduced the dollar rita!
