If you were wanting to grab a burger and fries at Applebee's in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, you'll have to pick another spot.  Sadly, this specific Applebee's location at 1400 Brookdale Mall is officially closed.  According to to Bring Me The News, the restaurant closed at the end of March.

Update: The president of the Applebee's franchisee that the Brooklyn Center restaurant falls under sent us the following statement regarding the permanent closure:

“Our Applebee's restaurant at 1400 Shingle Creek Parkway in Brooklyn Center is now closed. All team members have been offered positions at our nearby restaurants. We greatly appreciate our neighbors' patronage for the past 38 years and loved being part of this neighborhood. We hope to see you soon at our neighboring restaurants in New Hope, Fridley, and Maple Grove.”
