Goodbye to a classic

I'm quite sad to say that with very little (if any) warning, the Childe Harold has pretty muched closed its doors tonight.

The restaurant, which has been in operation for 40 years, will serve its last meals tonight.

The closing seemed to come as a surprise to a friend who works there, which makes me curious - to say the least - why this bar and restaurant is closing.

I've always been a fan of the Childe Harold. Always a good place for brunch or a cheap eat, the service was always friendly and the food quality.

If this is the offical end for the Childe Harold, I hope whomever takes over that space does it justice. It'll be pretty hard shoes to fill.
