Soaring energy prices have forced a popular restaurant to close its doors. The Station Masters House, which is a fish and chip restaurant, bar and takeaway in Bingley has closed with immediate effect.
Owners Matthew and Jo Hogg came to the conclusion the Bradford business was no longer viable after their annual electric bill had spiked from £8,500 to around £36,000.
As reported by YorkshireLive, other costs were also drastically increasing such as the price of fish, chicken, beer and soft drinks. In a post on social media the owners said: "It is with sadness and regret we have to announce The Station Masters will be closed for the foreseeable future."
