Bloody hell! That’s surprising. Never had anything less than a great experience there, and it was usually packed as well.

I feel like Allerton Road's going through a bit of a downturn again. The Allerton (or as most of us will know it The Other Place) didn't last long under its new guise. Looks like Mooney's has closed down and now this. Hoping it's just a lull but we'll see

Honestly it's a bit of a revolving door on Allerton Road - places open and close all the time. Everywhere seems busy whenever I walk along, so wouldn't be surprised if this re-opens as something else soon enough

Damnit, I'm moving to Allerton next month. Was excited about having the petit cafe nearby!

Nah, that's sad.

The real shame is that the Baltic Bakehouse is still open

Too be fair, it was plazzy anyway

Tbh, £9 for a regular glass of house red, I'm not surprised! Anyhoo, Gutman will probably take over then all will be 'fine' 🥺... he's a total disgrace who does wtf he wants to do structurally!!!
