It comes just weeks after another popular Glasgow bar suddenly closed it’s doors, leaving 40 staff without jobs.
Metropolitan Cocktail Bar and Restaurant in the city’s Merchant Square closed its doors suddenly, after 22 years.
Heartbroken Iain Reid and Kevin McGuire said they “feel personally responsible” to their loyal team after being forced to close down the struggling venue.
Iain added: “Our loss in revenue against rising costs is unsustainable. As an independent business, we physically cannot keep up.
“The footfall just doesn’t match the costs. On top of all of the bills, we have to pay 75 grand in rates. England have had 75% rates relief for four years, and Scotland have had none. It’s shocking.”
Metropolitan has become a Glasgow institution in the Merchant City area since it opened in 2002 and is known as a hugely-popular nightlife spot.
Co-Owner Kevin McGuire said: “”We’ve been between four or five shut units for two years. And our revenue from pre-COVID is way down.
“It’s just not sustainable. We’ve tried our best. We take, as directors, very little out of the business, but this has hit us like a tonne of bricks.”
