Save the Waterside Meadery in Penzance

That's Food and Drink is publishing this petition as a public service:-

"The Waterside Meadery is a family restaurant nestled on the harbour at Penzance. It opened in March 1970 and has been owned and ran by the same family since. 

"The Waterside Meadery is not just a restaurant, it's a West Cornwall institution and a real community concern. It has been a thriving business in Penzance and see in the region on 35k visits a year.. It supports local suppliers and trades and does a good amount of work for charity and community ventures.

"As part of the Penzance Town Deal, the Council wish to demolish the building to make way for a freight storage shed for the Steamship company.

"The building has been on the harbour for many years. Originally it was clay sheds, then got repurposed into a cafe and after, became The Waterside Meadery.

"If the council do demolish The Waterside Meadery, not only will 25 people lose their jobs, the owners will lose their livelihood, suppliers will lose thousands of pounds of business and the community will lose their Meadery. The knock on effect is huge.

"Please help and sign the petition to show that, whilst you support progress for Penzance, you do NOT want The Waterside Meadery to be demolished.

"Thank you."
