Dear all,
This is a message that we write with the heaviest of hearts, but after five years of pouring pints for you, Little Faith will be closing at the end of this week.
We remain hopeful that a new company may quickly be found to take it on, and continue to run our lovely, quirky little space for you, but this is out of our control.
The truth is that we have faced a tsunami of operational difficulties since we first opened our doors to you in December 2018, along with the hospitality industry as a whole.
We would not have managed to survive this long without your support.
Things were very dicey for us after the lockdowns, and we were blown away by the your support in response to our Keep The Faith campaign. This was a truly humbling moment; the realisation that the little bar we had opened meant something to so many people. We are only sorry that we have not been able to keep going for you this time.
Among many, some of the biggest highlights for us in the time we have been open (to name but a few): hosting The Kernel, Sudden Death (Germany), Escape (US) and many other great brewers for tap takeovers; hosting the London Craft Beer Festival after party; listening to so many amazing local musicians and comedians at the many events we have held over the years… the list goes on.
A huge shout out to all of our customers - past and present - who have helped make Little Faith what it has become, and also to all the brilliant staff (Jamie, Chris, Rob, Ryan, George - take a bow). We will miss you all, but are sure that we will cross paths again one day.
Our last day trading will be this Sunday 30th June – please pop by and help us drink the place dry, and raise a toast.
With love, admiration and thanks,
Alex, Henry x
