Shampers wine bar and restaurant closes after 43 years
Shampers wine bar and restaurant in London's West End has announced its closure after 43 years of trading at 4 Kingly Street, 30 years of which were under its most recent ownership and management.
A post on the venue's Instagram page by Simon Pearson said: "We are much saddened to have to announce that Shampers has closed its doors after over 43 years of trading...
"We would like to thank all of you who have supported us over this time; so much history and water under the bridge.
"For me personally, it is a privilege have been part of the West End for so many years, and to have fed and watered such a wide cross section of people from so many different walks of life."
