Cafe in Calderdale village shutting down after 15 years as owners retire

A Calderdale village cafe is closing for good.

The Cafe Bar, on Burnley Road in Mytholmroyd, has been open for 15 years and survived many roadworks and several floods.

But its owners say they are “finally retiring”.

They have posted that they are shutting down after lunch on Friday, December 19.

"It’s been a blast and the support of everyone has been amazing, along with our wonderful staff,” said their social media post.

"As extremely busy as we can get, with all the rising costs we have been subjected to, replacing the two of us so we could continue is just not viable.

"From Aux Délices, The Bar and Tapas and finally The Cafe Bar, the last 15 years have been amazing.

"In spite of three floods and three years of traffic management, we survived and flourished, but sadly all good things must end.

"Thank you all for your support over the years.”
