This year, Adelaide has a seen series of closures across cafes, bars, restaurants, pubs and nightclubs that has rocked the state. Among these are venues that were once considered industry icons.
Some closures are attributed to retirement, but predominately, the causes are mounting expenses, rising interest rates and ongoing staff shortages, that have placed financial pressure on many establishments.
In the face of these shutdowns, the community is encouraged to support their favourite venues, and throw some love behind small businesses.
