Yes, Bubbles last day of trading is the 23rd of February but it will not become another small business. It is to be converted back into a house or possibly another flat (there is a flat upstairs already).
I am a long time family friend of Mario at Bubbles and, despite the trend of other small businesses closing due to high business rates, Bubbles has continued to do well. Mario would like to spend more time with his family now and have a bit of a break! In the spirit of this, he will eventually be closing his vegan deli, Vegango, next door. That might become available to lease but not sure as to the time scale.
I am very sad to see Mario go, for many reasons, but happy that he's going to get the rest that he truly deserves!
