Every Beefeater restaurant in Britain will shut for good on September 10, owner Whitbread has confirmed. In April, Premier Inn owner Whitbread announced plans to cut 3,800 jobs and launched a new five-year strategy aimed at cutting costs by £250million. The Premier Inn owner owns the Brewers Fayre and Bar + Block brands, which will also vanish. The no-frills dining spots were often located near Premier Inn sites. 'This mirrors the format which is already in operation in over half of Premier Inn hotels and is highly popular with hotel guests.'
