Little Jumbo is closing next month
The beloved cocktail bar will remain open until the end of October
Since opening its doors in 2013, Little Jumbo has been more than just a place for cocktails and fine dining—it’s been a well-known gathering spot for locals and tourists.
After 11 years of service, the time has come to say goodbye. Little Jumbo has announced it will be closing for good by the end of October, citing an unsustainable 40% rent increase and rising operational costs.
“We've weathered floods, frozen pipes, and a pandemic, but unfortunately, a 40% rent hike and rising costs have made it impossible for us to keep things going. While we're gutted, we're choosing to go out on a high note—and we want you to be a part of our final chapter,” Little Jumbo wrote in its newsletter with the announcement on Sep. 5.
