The plant-based restaurant also has branches in Milan and Ne🦹w York, which closed last summer.

According to The Sun, the closures of the final two UK restaurants will re🅺su👍lt in the loss of around 150 jobs.

"We have no further comment at this time, other than to confirm that the business has🧔 taken the difficult decision to close 𝔍its UK restaurants,” a spokesperson for Neat Burger said.

Actor DiCaprio and Belgian footballer T꧙hibaut Courtois wer🌱e also involved in the project.

The franchise was valued at $100m in 2023 but reported loses of £7.9m in 2022. This was put down to a drop in𝓡 footfall in London due to hybrid working and a decline in delivery demand.

On track, Hamilton is enduring a difficult start to life as a Ferrari driver since making a blockbust🐭er switch from Mercedes.
