The closure isn’t an isolated one, with various hospitality venues in Bristol closing their doors in the face of rising costs and falling demand. Emmeline in Stokes Croft and Mission Burrito on Park Street have been the latest casualties.

The shop opened in autumn of last year, and became well known for its quality vegan and vegetarian food.
