'Much-loved' Edgworth restaurant closes with immediate effect after 40 years
It marks the end of an era for the local community.
A beloved restaurant has closed its doors after 40 years of ‘laughter’ and ‘friendships’.
The Toby Inn, located on Broadhead Road in Edgworth, is a family-run eatery and pub with beautiful views over miles of countryside.
Owned by the same family for four decades, the venue has now announced its immediate closure.
In an update on Facebook on Monday evening (March 2), the team said: “After 40 years, our much-loved family-run restaurant is closing with immediate effect.
“This has been an extremely difficult and heart-breaking decision, and whilst it’s no secret that we had been looking to retire, we understand the news may come as a shock.
“We close our doors with enormous pride. Forty years in hospitality is no small achievement, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have shared that journey with such a wonderful community.
“Over the decades, we’ve had the privilege of hosting birthdays, anniversaries, first dates, family gatherings and countless everyday meals that turned into special memories.
“Forty years of laughter. Forty years of friendships. Forty years of memories that we will carry with us forever.”
Regarding any future bookings, the team added: “We will be in touch with you directly or you can contact us on [email protected].”
