A family-run falafel outlet has announced it will close one of its two locations after 14 years of business. Falafel King, which claims to have been Bristol's first falafel outlet 22 years ago, will shut its Cotham Hill branch for good this week.
The business first launched from a kiosk in the Centre in 2000 and later expanded to Cotham Hill in 2008 at a time when there were very few cafes and restaurants in the area. "The street has now blossomed with a range of hospitality and it has been a great pleasure to have been a part of it," a statement from Falafel King read on Instagram.
Speaking to BristolLive, owner Oren Adani said: "It's sad but it's also a positive move for us so it's not all tears. We're cutting down on the hospitality and retail side and focusing more on our wholesale business."
