Restaurants closing
 

Restaurants closing ! I saw on Facebook yesterday that al fresco was thinking of closing as lack of customers aas well as restaurants along the front !? I’m still ever hopeful to get here in September but this would be a disaster as it’s a sign of this epidemic and no thoughts of air bridges !
Feeling disappointed

We always use Alfresco when in p.p. Tasty snacks at reasonable prices. We will be sad to see it go for good.

I have spoken with them and they have not made a final decision yet. It is possible that they will close the doors but still continue with pre-ordered food for take away or delivery.

We will have to wait and see how things go but Louisa didn't say anything about a permanent closure, please don't jump to conclusions.

Yes, at home or on holiday we must avoid talking down the situation with self-fulfilling worries. There's little we can do here in Blighty to help our restaurant, bar, shop an holiday-complex hosts in PP.
We just hope they can weather this storm because one thing is certain, if we can move safely beyond Covid-19 by next year, they'd better stand clear of their doors or face being trampled in the stampede.

Al Fresco have posted this on FB :-

I went through the square last night (old town) on a scouting mission. I would say there were about 70% of the usual crowd?

( I'd had a horrific experience in the Eroski 2 days ago where I've now concluded that the Spanish (and Germans) think wearing a mask means that no social distancing at all is required and they'll walk right up to you and brush past whenever they like.)

So I deamed it safe enough to eat out and we went to La posada d'Ariant where no one was eating. Within 20 minutes a few more tables filled up so I was pleased that my rent-a-crowd helped a bit!

IRU will close on Friday evening due to low numbers.

I feel so sad about what I'm learning. Iru, Miramar - closing 'very' early for this year - well established & historic icons of the resort. Terrible times. (And someone else mentioned reports about Sis Pins also)

I am afraid it's going to be a very long and hard winter here :(.

I feel really sorry for all the business and hotels in PP - our October flight was cancelled and the rest of the year for J2 - so if people cannot get there it is an impossible task to keep going. Hopefully, next year will be ok and really hope that the port can recover.

Corb Mari have announced they're now closed until next season 😔

Tolo's and Torre Playa have closed today.

Out of curiosity, what cafe/restaurants are still open? Sadly, it sounds like not all that many :(

I won't do a list because it's changing daily but there are still plenty of places open ;).

Tiberi now closed.
