Chef Rob Scott has announced that Tipp City’s Greenfire Fresh, which he took over from previous owner Art Chin on July 7th, will close for good on Feb 27th.

According to his post on facebook:

“There are many factors that have lead us to this extremely hard decision.

While Covid certainly hasn’t helped the journey- I’m sure I’ve made my own share of mistakes along the way too.

Also due to new codes and regulations, it has become financially overwhelming to bring our kitchen up to code, in order to serve you as best as possible.

It has been such an amazing ride with Greenfire.

From feeding all of you wonderful people, to the gained friendships, and extraordinary humans we have met along the way.”

He encourages everyone to “Grab a drink and fresh inspired food and give Greenfire the send off it rightfully deserves after 26 years of serving the community!”

Chef Rob Scott, a Tipp City native and the owner of Greenfire Fresh, is launching a new eatery that will operate out of the same kitchen and only serve their gourmet burgers for delivery.

This concept, known as a ghost restaurant, has become very popular around the country during the pandemic. These virtual restaurants or cloud kitchen, are foodservice establishment that offers take-out only. These “ghostly” eateries don’t have a storefront, so customers can’t come to pick up their own food. Ghost restaurants deliver food directly to their patrons.

Burgers & More, according to their website, will offer Chef Rob’s classic 6oz burger with lettuce, tomatoes, onions and house made garlic aioli. Served on a broche bun with fries, a Jerk Burger, topped with red onion, pineapple, lettuce & munster cheese with a side of fries, a Salmon burger, buffalo chicken burger or a spicy black bean burger- all burgers run $13.

Other menu offerings include fried pickle spears, spinach artichoke dip, wings, gyro, chicken bacon ranch and buffalo chicken flatbreads.
