I read recently a prediction that as many as 4000 restaurants will fail in Canada this year. I wonder who the other Saint John casualties will be in the months to come?  |
I don't frequent it, so I can't comment on whether the new owners have managed it well, but the Facebook comments pointed out the obvious: the location is the problem. People aren't comfortable parking or being in that area, halfway between the max pub and the fentanyl zone. The furniture store closed down a while back, and I wouldn't be surprised if the sushi place is struggling too.
