Long John Silver’s closes Dayton area location

Long John Silver’s located at 785 W. Central Ave. in Springboro is permanently closed after serving the community since 1977, a spokesperson for Long John Silver’s confirmed.

“Closing a restaurant is never an easy decision for our company,” the spokesperson said. “Since LJS is a mostly franchise owned and operated brand, franchise owners can choose to close their location for a variety of reasons. We are thankful for the guests and crew members who sailed with us over the years.”

The restaurant officially closed its doors on April 10. Springboro City Manager Chris Pozzuto said he did not know of any plans for a new restaurant to open in the space.

Long John Silver’s is also located at 2480 N. Fairfield Road in Beavercreek, 1540 Miamisburg Centerville Road in Dayton, 2235 Needmore Road in Dayton and 420 E. National Road in Vandalia.
