A vegan burger restaurant in Cardiff has announced its sudden closure, saying that it has been "hit hard" by the effects of the pandemic, Brexit, and the current cost of living crisis. Got No Beef, which was based on Barrack Lane in the city centre, posted on its social media channels to announce that the restaurant had closed on September 11.
"Like so many other wonderful businesses, we have been hit hard by the ongoing pandemic and engulfed by the devastating effects of the current economic/energy crises and Brexit. As a consequence of this, we closed our doors for the very last time on Sunday 11th September," a message posted on Got No Beef's social media channels and website read.
"We fear that, without substantial government intervention, many more independent businesses will go to the wall. They must be supported immediately", the post continued. The burger joint started life as a street food stall six years ago before being transformed into a restaurant in 2019.
