Mr Toms closes for good

Following three years of operation, Mr Toms has announced that it will close for good. The news was broken via the Mr Toms Facebook page that read “After 3 years of fun, good food, cocktails and service we are very sad and sorry to announce that Mr Toms has closed permanently effective from today.”

This closure comes a few days after diners witnessed a meltdown in the kitchen that lead to chefs walking out on top of 90-minute waits for meals. Jenny Goulding, a spokesperson for Mr Toms, said, “We recognise we overpromised but under-delivered…we thought we could perform but obviously failed.”

The Facebook post was finished with “Look out for an exciting fresh new bar at 151 Ponsonby Road in the next coming months.”
