Sherry's Soda Shoppe announced on its Facebook in early October that it had closed both its locations, which were in Five Points Denver and Boulder.

The spot for ice cream and other sweet treats had a short run.

“We opened during the pandemic and never really had the chance to succeed for various reasons, including the ongoing labor shortage,” states the Facebook post.

Sherry's Soda Shoppe was a concept of the Bridge & Tunnel Restaurant Group. All its other concepts remain open. They are: Rosenberg's Bagels and Delicatessen, Lou’s Italian Specialties and Famous Original J’s Pizza. All have locations in Five Points.
