Multiple Restaurants Announce Temporary, Permanent Closures in UK, Australia

Several well-known restaurants and eateries are temporarily or permanently closing across different regions. Poppins café in Swindon is closed for a summer break and will reopen on September 1st, while Abeba's Kitchen in Glasgow is also on a summer hiatus until after September, with the owner spending time in Ethiopia. Australia's oldest Chinese restaurant, Toi Shan in Bendigo, announced it will permanently close on July 30 after more than 70 years, as the owners retire and the venue will later reopen as an Indian restaurant. In Gainesville, the longstanding 43rd Street Deli will close permanently on August 10, though a new coffee shop, 7 Brew Coffee, is opening soon. Additionally, the Kings Head hotel in Cirencester has temporarily closed its main bar, restaurant, and brasserie for a refresh under new ownership, with plans to reopen these facilities in late September while keeping boutique bedrooms and the rooftop bar operational in the meantime.
