Steady Hand Pour House is closing too: http://atlanta.eater.com/archives/2013/03/07/location-changes-in-the-works-for-steady-hand-pour-house.php

OH NO!!! I hate to see y'all go! My husband took me to Everybody's on our first date in 1974! I loved it then & still do! Y'all will be missed! Good luck in the future!

I was a Senior at Georgia Tech as was my now wife, then gorgeous girl I had seen around campus for three+ years and wanted to meet. A mutual friend and other Tech student invited us both to dinner at Everybody's on a group dinner outing and the rest is history! We now live in Morningside and still frequent the area and Everybody's too! We will miss you! Thanks for the great memories!

As an employee of Everybody's I would like to thank each and every one of our guests for so many years of loyalty. The saddest part of this whole thing is, not having to go out and find a new job, but having to say goodbye to so many regulars we've come to know over the years as well as our fellow coworkers who've become like family. We're here for another 12 days, folks, so please come back and see us one last time so we can give Everybody's the send off it deserves!

NOOOOOO!!! my favorite restaurant... I remember it since i could begin having memories as a baby. My favorite meal was the Greek salad sandwich, it is amazing with their amazing garlic ranch, get it almost every time i am back in ATL. I even worked their as a bus-boy for a little while. True Emory Village history... I will miss you guys and your food....

Wow. I started eating there when they opened! Too many fun memories to even begin to discuss them, never mind the delicious pizzas! And a wee bit of beer....

This is really sad. I had my first date there when I started undergrad at Emory. I can't believe it! Now all these new places Ink & Elm, Purple Cork, and I guess a new brewpub. At least there are more drinking spots on campus. Best wishes to the staff...you will be missed!

Thank you for the great food and the memories!

Although I LOVE my special hamburgers with extra yellow mustard, thin sliced onions and pickles, Everybody’s is da BOMB!

You will certainly be missed!

Why do this to thriving, and well loved businesses? There are plenty of vacant spaces in Atlanta! Jerks!

Started working there a year after it opened - a hostess and than a waitron. Cash only in those days and much smaller. $.35 PBRs on Tuesday nights because Emory still had Wonderful Wednesdays. The crowd that worked there then - Skip, Betty, Peggy, Ken, David, Lamar, Janice, Diane, Mary, Anne, the bartender who was an ex Marine who always bought us a beer at the end of the night. Forgotten a lot of names. Best food - the pizza we developed which the cook hated making but with some flirting we got him to - thin crust, no sauce, herb dressing, cheese pizza. The best.

Um, Kathryn I think you misread the article. No one is doing anything to Everybody's. The owner is simply retiring and letting his lease expire. New brew-pub is moving into what will soon be a vacant space.

Took my first true love there in 1974
Loved the Pabst Dark in those days
Loved it when they also leased the space next door... wooden booths - very intimate
My first wife once yelled "Move your leg, jock" to a table impeding our exit. LOL She was such a delicate flower.. :-)
Any old employees remember a guy named Price who worked there in the 70's I guess? He later managed a Pizza place on Johnson Ferry Nice guy old school Everybody's
Great Memories

Emory could power the whole village off the grease trap in Methane. I'm sure the sister trap in Everybody's is equally productive.

The very first place I was taken to dinner when I first moved to Atlanta. Very much a part of the "Emory" days and early years that served as the foundation to my soon to be spectacular lie in Atlanta, Georgia-- transforming me into a true Southern Peach. We will miss this iconic place -- that represented Atlanta from the beginning (for me), the best pizza in the most intimate little village --- .

I managed a record store (Position One) at the Everybody's site in 1970. I guess they must have moved in shortly after the store closed. It was a great place to spend my time and my customers were awesome .. as I'm sure they were for everyone at Everybody's. I hope the next occupant has as much success as Everybody's did. Much luck to all. Samara

best pesto in atlanta--which was in several dishes. nothing can match that flavor! we are sad at our house :(
somebody should buy the recipe and make it and sell it at the farmer's markets!

I was a freshman at Emory in the fall of '71 when I noticed that the record store in Emory Village was being renovated. I poked my head inside to inquire what the place would be, and they said, "A pizza place", to which I replied, "Are you hiring?" I became Everybody's first (some say second, but I dispute that!) employee, after of course, Phil, Andy, Miranda, and Nancy.

I was a busboy, and worked there from several weeks before opening, until the spring of 1973.

I remember the music of The Band was always playing in the hectic kitchen, and how it somewhat irked me that I was making $1.75 an hour and got no tips, while the waitresses were raking it in every night by the hundreds ( EB's quickly became jam-packed every night).

In addition to the owners and mates, I remember working there with bartender Mary, fellow bus-persons Becky B., and Alex G., waitress Charlie D., and bartender Steve. By the way, Steve was the ex-Nam Green Beret at the bar that someone referred to in a previous comment. I made the mistake of dumping a ladle full of pizza sauce on his head at the bar one night while clowning around, and it almost cost me my life. I also recall many Saturday nights heading with the owners and crew to The Majestic on Ponce for a 2AM after-closing meal of fried liver and onions or some other such delicacy.

Thanks, Phil & Andy, for being my first real employers. I have many fond memories there that I will always carry. The best to you both.

Looking forward to having some new local eats
