Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have prepared forecasts which indicate that the company will be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the approval of the financial statements. These projections take a prudent view of the expected trade across the period despite the closure of the Clerkenwell restaurant in April 2025. The directors therefore have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence and meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months from the date these financial statements were approved. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
