Peace, love, and no more crabs. Joe’s Crab Shack, the seafood chain on Lohr Rd. near I-94 in Pittsfield Twp., abruptly closed in mid-August. It was not the only one to go: all of Joe’s Michigan locations closed their doors in the midst of a change of ownership and a bankruptcy filing for the company.

Pizza Pino, the Liberty St. pizza joint across from the Blank Slate Creamery, also abruptly closed its doors in early September after nine years in business. A man answering their old number confirmed that they were closed, but would say nothing more.
