Dannii’s Diner, on Thetford Road in Brandon, is “calling time” two years after opening. It notably served traditional pie and mash with liquor and eels.
A heartfelt post on its Facebook page it said: “It is with great sadness that we are calling time on Dannii’s Diner.
“We would like to thank every one of our customers for your support over the last two years. We will be closing on Saturday 13 April.
“It would be lovely to see you all if you are about. Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your custom.”
