JERICHO’S Kitchen in Northgate Street, Launceston, is to close on December 29.

Owners Rod, Mel and Yas Statton announced the news of the closure, citing a change in circumstances, and extended thanks to all customers and suppliers for their support over the years.

The final working day will be Saturday, December 29, and they hope that people will visit to have a bite to eat before the doors are closed.

The closure does not affect Liberty Coffee, which will still continue to be open, selling coffee, tea and cake.
