A popular pizzeria business in south Wales has announced the closure of its flagship branch in Cardiff, citing "significant losses" in the pandemic, "rising costs" and debt. The owners of Dusty's Pizzeria, married couple Deb and Phill Lewis, announced on Wednesday that their venue in The Bone Yard in Canton was shutting with immediate effect.
In a statement on social media, they wrote: "With immense sadness Phill and I must announce the immediate closure of Dusty’s Pizza at our Papermill Road location, otherwise known as The Boneyard. Us, like so many others, have suffered significant losses as a result of the pandemic in 2019 and whilst we have battled hard to retain our sites one by one they have fallen foul to rising costs, have become encumbered with debt as a result of the last few years without adequate room for their recovery.
