Top UK restaurant chain shuts ALL its sites as it goes bust after nearly a decade in business

It was an award winning restaurant LAST ORDERS Top UK restaurant chain shuts ALL its sites as it goes bust after nearly a decade in business Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A TOP UK restaurant chain has shut the doors on all its sites due to going bust after nearly a decade in business. The restaurant, which had branches in Exeter, Taunton and Cardiff, entered liquidation, having to close its doors and leave some staff unpaid. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Eat The Bird Exeter Credit: Eat The Bird 5 Eat The Bird Exeter Credit: Eat The Bird 5 Eat The Bird's fried chicken burger was multi-award winning Credit: Eat The Bird Eat the Bird gained popularity as a restaurant after first opening in Taunton in 2017. It describes itself as a "multi-award winning burger joint", and even bagged the Street Food Dish of the Year award in 2023. Two more branches launched in 2022, first in Exeter and then in Cardiff. The company, however, failed to pay its meat supplier, Fairfax Meadow Europe Ltd, and closed down completely on July 22. Under the ownership of Daniel Aldridge, Eat the Bird must pay Fairfax Meadow from its assets in accordance with a court order mandate. Mr Aldridge confirmed that several staff members are also yet to recieve their wages after the sudden closure. He told Somerset Country Gazette these staff will be paid. "I am working closely with one of the directors, and we are working hard to get the situation sorted," Mr Aldridge said. The company's struggles and subsequent closure have been attributed to both escalating costs and the aftermath of Covid-19. The businessman added: "We were weighed down by the hidden nasties post-COVID. "We have so many empty shops in Taunton, we need them filled. Pub chain collapses into administration as SIX sites shut their doors for good and 159 job losses "It takes people like me to get them sorted, it's no good commenting on a shop's closure via Facebook." People nevertheless took to Facebook to express their shock at the news that the much-loved restaurant had closed. One Taunton resident posted after learning about the closure: "That is very sad. "Great staff, great food. "I am very disappointed. "Best wishes to all of the employees who have looked after us so well over the last few years." Another added: "One of my favourite places to eat in Taunton. "Very sad." A third chimed in: "Gutting! "I love that place." Eat the Bird's shutting down comes just a week after a popular online food critic praised the branch in Exeter. Danny from Rate My Takeaway's YouTube channel sampled the restaurant's Dirty Donald and My Big Fat Greek in a clip that has raked up more than 95,000 views. He described the food as "absolutely fantastic". The branch in Exeter had actually been planning to move into a shopping centre last autumn, which became delayed last-minute. 5 Eat The Bird has endeavoured to make the best fried chicken in town Credit: Eat The Bird

Friday 1 August 2025. Lidl recalls Red Hen 4 Tempura Chicken Steaks because milk is not emphasised on the label #FoodAllergy A Lidl spokesman said: 'Lidl GB is recalling the above-mentioned product due to milk not being in bold with the back of pack ingredients. 'This may be a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to milk. 'If you have bought the above product and have an allergy to milk we advise you not to eat it. 'Customers are asked to return this product to the nearest store where a full refund will be given. 'We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your cooperation. 'For further information, contact Customer Care on or 0203 966 5566.' A spokesman for the Food Standards Agency (FSA) added: 'If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents, do not eat it. Instead return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund.' If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product). The FSA issues Product Withdrawal Information Notices and Product Recall Information Notices to let consumers and local authorities know about problems associated with food. In some cases, a 'Food Alert for Action' is issued. This provides local authorities with details of specific actions to be taken on behalf of consumers.
