The closing comes just after another area restaurant announced its closing.

Paccini's Pizza, located directly across the street from AJ Cafe, announced they were closing back at the end of February.

First off I wanna say thank you to all of our staff and customers for making AJ’s an amazing place the last 10 years. Unfortunately the time at AJs will be coming to an end on April 27th for a whole list of reasons. Swing by to have a few more good times before it’s too late. I will vouch for any of my staff members who will be soon looking for new jobs. If any employers see their work history say AJs then you can have confidence that they would be a great employee. Thanks everyone for the memories………John
