The Cafe is threathened by closure
June 23rd, 2006
New Piccadilly Cafe, Denman St, London W1
More and more rumours are going around that the Cafe, yes the one and only THE CAFE, is closing. The owner is facing another raise in rent, and he is not really willing to settle for that, so if things are not getting in place, they will close this summer.
I haven’t been there for a while (and I feel pretty bad about that right now), so I will go there tonight, and I hope to hear from them that things are going to be fine. It would break my heart if they had to close.
But (and this might be a last attempt), go visit the Cafe, if and/or when you are in London before it might be too late. It is a really nice place!

Landlords are evil and have no sense of good cinematography!

How about PledgeBank? Maybe you can get a campaign started with http://www.en-gb.pledgebank.com/? (I had to see whether I still had the URL. I had.)
