The Rockford Cafe in Raleigh's Glenwood South district has apparently closed for good, according to a sign posted on the restaurant's door.
The sign reads: "Sorry. The Rockford has closed today. Thanks for 15 great years."
The cafe, at 320 1/2 Glenwood Avenue, overlooked the street from the second floor.
It was famous for, among other things, its sandwich of Granny Smith apples, bacon, sharp cheddar cheese and toasted sesame honey dressing on French toasted whole wheat.
