The past few weeks have flown by in the blink of an eye and now it's time to say an emotional farewell and turn the restaurant lights off one last time.
Thank you to everyone who has supported the Smugglers Table Restaurant over the past 11 years.
You have celebrated every imaginable occasion with us, and joined us as we hosted New Year's Eve dinners, charity events, and anniversary menus.
You supported our take away service during lock down and came back in force when we were allowed to re-open, and you cannot imagine how much that meant to us during such uncertain times.
There were days when we possibly spent as much time looking at holiday photos and chatting as we did in the kitchen, but that's what has made this restaurant such an great experience.
Getting to know you all and seeing you enjoy your time with us has been the best part of our time in Bridge Street, we thank you all for that.
We have made so many friends along this journey and none more so than the people we have had the privilege to work alongside.
Some staff have come in for a couple of years and moved on, some have stayed for the duration. All have worked hard, but my goodness the laughs we have had!
These people are family now!!
So many friends made, and a few lost along the way. These faces won't be forgotten when we lock the door for the last time, they're in our hearts and we will carry the memories of them enjoying time in the restaurant with us, forever.
Now all we can do is thank Mervyn and Lois for giving us the opportunity to run the restaurant at the Smugglers Table over the past years and wish them and the rest of the bar staff a busy and prosperous 2026.
