A restaurant has posted a goodbye to its customers today in a message announcing it will close.

The Mulberry Tree in Hermitage Lane, Boughton Monchelsea, will close its doors on Sunday, June 16.

Owner Karen Williams wrote online the property had been sold and will be shutting down after their Fathers Day jazz lunch.

In a message on the restaurant's website, Ms Williams said: "A Message to Our customers

"The doors of the Mulberry Tree will close after our Father’s Day jazz lunch on Sunday 16 June as we have sold the property.

"Up until that time we will be operating and open as normal and Lauren and I would obviously love to see you before we go.

"We are both very proud of our achievements at the restaurant, together of course with our lovely Mum and Nan, who we miss dearly.

"We would like to thank all of our loyal customers for all their support and custom over the last 13 years, we will miss you all.

"We are both very excited about the next chapter of our lives."

Ms Williams previously said she was battling with an electricity company over a £45,000 bill.

The 49-year-old argued that her meter had been recording the electricity usage twice as high as it was.
