NO BEER OR WINE TO BE SOLD AT SHONEY’S IN CROSSVILLE

Wine and beer won’t be on Shoney’s menus in East Tennessee. Bill Baugh, president and CEO of Shoney’s of Knoxville, said his 20 restaurants in East Tennessee, which includes the Crossville Shoney’s, won’t serve any alcohol. His announcement comes after corporate Shoney’s, which is headquartered in Nashville, announced it would allow locations to sell alcohol. But Baugh said that’s not the case for his restaurants located in 10 East Tennessee counties. Shoney’s are locally owned and operated franchises.
