Unfortunately we start our year with some sad news.
Due to crazy costs of running, crippling Vat bills, rising rent increases and rates. And just impossible day to day costs of being open we are not renewing our lease at Sam's.
It's been an incredible journey and we have poured our heart and soul into it. Incredibly grateful for our customers and loyal repeat custom. We've had the best staff that we love and miss dearly.
We're not the only independent business forced into this position by bellend politicians, greedy privately owned utility companies and just outright stupid landlords and letting agents.
But it's not forever. We will head back to events and hopefully continue doing what we love. For now though we have a lot to do and try to hold things together and shut down our site.
If you miss us that much be sure to come check out our new project in Charlton kings .kitchen
Again we can't thank you all enough for making it happen and supporting us on our journey.
Big love to all ❤️
From Sam & Ria-anne
