Popular Peterborough restaurant House of Feasts closes

Popular award-winning restaurant House of Feasts, located in Eye Green, has announced that it has closed with immediate effect.

Wednesday (August 31) was the final day of trading for the restaurant that specialised in Polish cuisine.

Restaurateur Damian Wawrzyniak announced his intention to close the eatery in July due to spiralling costs caused by the cost of living crisis but there continued to try and find ways to keep House of Feasts open.

The final decision ends five years of trading for the restaurant that has won various awards including the Casual Dining Restaurant of the Year from the Great Food Club.

The travelling kiosk, which is a common sight at local events across the region, will continue to trade though.

A message on the restaurant’s Facebook page read: “Dear all, Maybe we have tried too much, maybe we were attached to HOF too much, sorry for all the confusion.

“There is no point in going any further, the restaurant will close with immediate effect.
