    Closure of business due to ending of lease

    Thanks Michael, no evidence of the notice has been shown because there isn't one. I know the LL will argue till blue in the face as they're already facing a hefty bill from the new owner to make good such as painting/decorating, replacing rotten flooring etc and know they'll try and wriggle off...

    Closure of business due to ending of lease

    Update: Many thanks for inputs from all of you, very much appreciated. The latest on this situation is that the tenant landlord is now terminating 31st January 2022, whereupon our tenancy automatically terminates due to Sections 24 to 28 being excluded in our contract. This won't I believe...

    Good evening

    Just signed up to UKBF. My partner and I set up a small tea room 10 years ago. Although it only has 36 covers, we find ourselves very busy indeed. We have a mixed demographic, young and old and very favourable with cyclists looking for a coffee and cake stop! We serve tea and coffee also English...
