New Piccadilly memories

So it looks from the discussion here like the New Piccadilly is finally going to close its doors around the 22nd or 23rd of September. A sad day. I'm sure many people will be visiting to pay some final respects to the place, and many more will have great pictures sitting in a shoebox or on a hard drive somewhere. I thought it'd be nice to commemorate the place in pictures so I created a public flickr group called New Piccadilly Memories where anyone can stick this stuff, pictures or stories or thoughts. I think it'd be a good way to celebrate the home of many good meals.

Hello,

Since you're the man on the pulse and I always enjoy reading your 'breakfast blogs' this strikes me as BAD NEWS. I remember this place from your book and the food looks delightful. It's awful that places like this shut so often. Any chance of countering it with a piece about a newly opened cafe? Offer some optimism? Or would that be rubbing salt? d'ah I miss your blogs!

I just so hope you are wrong. But I have heard the rumours for a long time too.

Here's my little tribute to this cathedral of caffs:
