The economic downturn has led to the closure of an Alexandra
restaurant for the winter.
The Cellar Door restaurant closed yesterday because of
reduced demand and its closure would be reviewed after
winter, The Cellar Door Ltd director Russell Ibbotson said.
"Its closure probably reflects the difficult economic
situation at present and the uncertainty going into winter."
The retail sector as well as the hospitality industry was
affected by the downturn, he said.
However, The Cellar Door function and conference centre was
still taking bookings for functions, conferences or meetings
throughout winter.
