In Anglesey, Wales, Catch 22 Brasserie recently shared a stark observation on social media; they hadencountered one of their quietest days ever. This revelation comes amidst abroader crisis gripping the hospitality industry, where numerous restaurantshave shuttered in the face of rising business rates and soaring living costs.

Echoing Catch 22 Brasserie's sentiments, fellow businesses voiced similar anxieties. BishopsGate House Hoteland Theodore's acknowledged unprecedented quiet periods, while a local giftshop lamented dismal earnings, expressing hope for an Easter resurgence. Nook,a prominent Cardiff restaurant, also disclosed a distressing reality: a day with zero customers, signalling an urgent need for change lest they face closure.
