Denver — Punch Bowl Social has filed for voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy through the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. The Denver-based “eatertainment” concept has closed all but three of its locations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The venues in Austin, Texas; Arlington, Virginia; and Atlanta remain open. In summer 2019, Cracker Barrel invested $140 million in Punch Bowl Social. According to multiple media reports, the restaurant chain chose during the pandemic to not invest any further in Punch Bowl Social, instead focusing on its own business.
