A Herefordshire cafe has confirmed that it will close in September, due to increased bills and the cost of living crisis.
Gelatis, an American Diner based in the heart of Ross-on-Wye, confirmed the news on social media earlier this month.
A post on Facebook said:
“It is with great sadness that I can confirm we will be closing our doors for the last time on Tuesday 6th September.
“It’s been very hard work and so much fun building my little business but sadly the energy price hike has made it impossible to carry on with bills trebling from BES Utilities Ltd (avoid this company like the plague!)
“They say you should save the best til last and the little team of young workers I’ve had this summer have been utterly fabulous!
“We are all gutted to say goodbye but I know they will all go on to have amazing careers and we’ve really had a blast working together and serving our lovely customers.
“The shop will not stay empty – there is a lovely new business starting but I will await permission from the new tenant before I say any more about that.
“Meanwhile, we will be delighted to serve old customers and new for the rest of the summer ( and I believe there may actually be a short summer on the way)
“Happy holidays everyone and thank you so much for your support.”
