Bao House lovers will have one final chance to get their hands on their favourite bao buns today, as the venue has announced it will shut its doors tomorrow.

After being an Aungier Street fixture since 2018, the Taiwanese restaurant will close their doors for the last time. They announced the sad news on their official Instagram page adding hashtag cost of living crisis which clearly played a part in their decision.

The restaurant management wrote on Monday: "Thanks for everyone’s support all these years. Bao House will close for good from February 23, 2023 (Thursday). If you still want a bite of best Bao Bun in the town, you still have last two days."
