As The Gaff approaches it's 5th anniversary we have taken time to reflect on the years gone by.
There have been some wonderful times, meeting so many new people, building friendships with customers that showed unwavering support week after week.
There have also been some sad times, losing friends along the way. The tough part of life that none of us should have to experience.
These difficult times do put life into perspective.
The hours that go into The Gaff, or any hospitality business for that matter, often go unseen, which sadly results in spending less time at home. As most of you will know I have a very young family and this has been the biggest factor for making the following decision. On the evening of the 22nd of March, our last service will be.
Over the past wee while the support from the staff in making this decision has meant the world and I'd like to publicly wish them well in their next endeavours. Some of the hardest working people I have met in my career have walked through the doors of The Gaff.
It is widely recognised the struggles of the hospitality industry at present and I would like to wish our friends within the industry the very best, keep up the good fight!
There may be a time in life that I can enjoy making pizza for you all again but for now, it's time to enjoy watching my children grow.
There are still a few vouchers out there so please do come in over the next couple of weeks and use them.
We'll be throwing out some old favourites and collabs over the next two weekends so keep an eye on our socials.
Not goodbye, just see you later 🍕
