    Sad to see all of these historic restaurants closing since the pandemic. It's no wonder so many are leaving this state. Hope everyone's having a good weekend.

    I only visited San Francisco a couple of times over the years, but oddly I ate at Mums every morning I stayed in the city. Fantastic place, fantastic people. Very sad to see it close, but I wish the family well and say thank you for giving me a great experience when I visited the cafe.

    Smart I think it's best to close. The goals am sure the father set out to be was just to support his family and watch his daughters grow, who needs more money other then that? Live life and enjoy, knowing how to spend your savings is the goal.

      The restaurant owner is in his 70s! It's hard work to run a restaurant even in your 40s. I seriously doubt you'd be able to run a restaurant in your 70s.

    This is the reality - Business need to adapt fast if they want to sustain this shift post pandemic. This means acknowledging that their security needs to be beefed up, adoption of delivery services is critical, adoption of AI tech to bridge the gap with staffing and expenses, and maybe food trucks to establish rapport and connect with potential retail that is not around the immediate area of your brick and motor. Ultimately, businesses need to adapt FAST.
