Le Cochon Aveugle in York to close this November
Their wine and pizza venue, Cave du Cochon, also in Walmgate, York, is said to remain open for business as usual
Le Cochon Aveugle in Walmgate, York, will reportedly close its doors at the end of November, after almost nine years in operation.
The venue’s owners, Joshua and Victoria Overington, have revealed that the reason for the move is that they “have creatively outgrown the space and are looking to explore a number of new avenues”, which they have recently found and considered.
The restaurant has won numerous accolades over the years for its “innovative” blind tasting menu, which is said to have been hugely popular, as well as winning praise from both critics and the general public.
The owners of the restaurant have not yet revealed their future plans, but will reportedly make further announcements in the coming months. Their wine and pizza venue, Cave du Cochon, also in Walmgate, York, is said to remain open for business as usual.
Joshua Overington said: “We have had an amazing time running Le Cochon Aveugle over the past eight years and achieved more than we could have hoped for. This hasn’t been an easy decision to make but the time has come for us to look at some new opportunities which have come our way.
“We are so grateful for all our team, both past and present, dedicated suppliers and especially our incredible guests, all of whom have supported us since day one and have helped make Le Cochon Aveugle such a success.”
He added: “We hope that they will continue to do that in our future ventures.”
