MEATliquor announces closure of Leeds site

Burger brand MEATliquor has announced that its Leeds outpost is shutting up shop following 11 years in business. 

The closure, announced today via Instagram, brings the group's estate to a total of eight venues – seven across London and one in Brighton. The post cites soaring expenses, including the cost of living and the price of beef, as the driving force behind the decision. 

'Last orders'

"After 11 years, almost to the day since we opened, we've called last orders in MEATliquor Leeds," the group states in the announcement.

"We've poured everything we had into making it work and stay open as long as we can but it's cheaper to close than to stay open...

"Leeds – thank you for everything, you've been AMAZING.

"The biggest thanks of all goes to our team, past & present, who poured the pints, smashed the burgers and made the magic happen every single day."

The operator has confirmed that it is business as usual across all other sites.
