An independent coffee shop in Gloucester has announced it will close down next month.
Roots Coffee has operated from Alvin Street in Kingsholm for the last ten years.
A spokesperson said: “Due to the covid lockdowns, multiple long-term staff illnesses within our small team, and the rising costs of food and utilities it has proved too difficult and we have tried all we can to keep it going.”
“We intend to keep options open to find a sustainable solution until that time, recognising it will probably take a miracle to do so.”
