🍜 FOUR WISE MONKEYS CLOSING NIGHT 🍜
Tonight marks the final night of service at our Clare Street home — after over a decade in this incredible building, we’ll be closing our doors.
It’s been a long journey to this point, but ultimately, we weren’t able to meet rent increase. After a year of negotiations, we’ve secured a buyer for the building and worked out a deal that allows The Raven to stay on the upper floors a silver lining we’re really proud of.
This building has been our base for over 10 years. We’ve weathered highs and lows, watched the area evolve, and stood strong as one of the last independents on the street. But with rising costs and shrinking margins, it was time to make a tough but smart business decision: to move on.
🙏 We’re grateful to have been able to offer most of our amazing team roles within our other venues, and Four Wise Monkeys isn’t disappearing completely we’re still available on Deliveroo and we’ll be working on finding a new physical home soon.
There’s exciting change ahead for this space, with major investment incoming something we just couldn’t stretch to ourselves. But we’re optimistic. Summer’s around the corner, the city feels alive again, and the future looks bright.
❤️ Thanks to everyone who’s ever stepped through our doors, ordered a bao bun, shared a laugh, or raised a glass with us. We’ve loved every moment.
Here’s to new beginnings.
