The Whole World Cafe closed because...
Home
The Wife went past yesterday and says it's closed down. Sign says they've ceased trading at that address (or similar wording), but does this mean they've moved elsewhere?
It's a shame, it was a nice place, the sort of place we could do with around here. It was not without it's problems though, I did quite often feel I was inconveniencing the person serving when I asked for food or a drink.
Hope something equally vege and music scene friendly opens up in its place.

no passing trade and too much competition
Rates (or was it rent) had just gone up, too much competition and not enough passing trade (ie none). So they've packed it in! This from a friend, I have not spoken directly. I understand (well read on Twitter) that there's an article about it in the Folkestone Herald today.

tis true they are gone saying that not worth carrying on as many shops closing in the old high street - no passing trade any more and much competition!

Over to you, discussion about anything local, but please be considerate... Folkestone on TV, Kent gigs, Find a flatmate, rent a room, property queries, current news, what's new, local events, for sale, local services, what I like about Folkestone, ask questions, offer advice, plug yourself... the more it's used the more useful a resource it will become. If you want a gig listed click here to add it (fixed now!), or just click here to post a message...
