Radical pay-what-you-can restaurant faces eviction from mill it refurbished

The Long Table says it took thousands of hours of work to turn derelict site into a community space, but landlord has now sold it

A Gloucestershire restaurant with a radical business model, in that it feeds all comers regardless of their ability to pay, is losing its premises after the owner sold the property.

The community around The Long Table, featured in the Guardian earlier this month, has been left reeling after it was ordered to move out of the mill it occupies in Stroud – even as it sought to engage with the landlord to buy the building.
