On Wednesday, the bar announced that they will be moving into a new location in East Atlanta Village.

"We’re the new kids in school now," owners said on social media.

The self-proclaimed “weird little nerd bar” spent more than a decade on historic Edgewood Avenue before officially closing its doors last weekend.
