Dear friends and customers of The Tickled Trout,
It is with heavy hearts that we announce The Tickled Trout will be permanently closing its doors on Sunday 30th August.
This has not been an easy decision, but with the increasing pressures facing the hospitality industry, it has become more and more difficult to run the cafe. Rising costs, increasing overheads, staffing pressures and changing consumer spending habits are affecting businesses of all sizes and leading to many of them closing.
Over the past 16 years it has been our absolute pleasure to serve you, and we are so grateful that you have been part of our journey and for supporting our local business. Please continue to visit until our last day, we’d love to see you all. If you have any gift vouchers, please be sure to redeem them before our final day.
With deepest gratitude,
Lucinda and The Tickled Trout Team
