Brothers Steak & Seafood in Pontyclun closes suddenly, citing performance issues, leaving employees worried about their future.
Pontyclun: So, there’s some big news from a steak and seafood place that just opened last year. Brothers Steak & Seafood has suddenly closed its doors, and the staff are pretty shocked about it.
The restaurant, run by twins Craig and Grant Hughes, announced they’re shutting down because of “performance challenges.” They were supposed to reopen on January 2, but that’s not happening anymore.
They shared on Instagram that they plan to come back with a “fresh and entirely new offering.” Sounds like they’re looking to revamp things a bit.
But here’s the kicker: staff are worried about not getting paid while the restaurant is closed. An email that got out suggests they won’t be receiving any wages during this downtime.
Brothers hasn’t really addressed those concerns yet, but they did say that any gift vouchers people bought will still be honored when they reopen.
They opened in December 2023 in a spot that used to be a well-known pub, which had been empty for a while. The place was all about fine dining and had a nice, classy vibe.
In their message to customers, they expressed gratitude for the support and promised to keep everyone updated on what’s next. It sounds like they’re hoping to turn things around soon.
