- Recent reporting finds ten Michelin‑featured UK restaurants have closed or announced closures in the past year, including the restaurant that owners said 'would no longer be operating after March 2026'.

- Club Gascon will shut at the end of March after operating since 1998, and Hide closed in January 2026, citing 2025 as unsustainable, while The Five Fields ended service after 12 years.
- Farewell messages emphasized that even venues with longstanding Michelin recognition, like Crocadon and Restaurant Örme, closed despite awards; Crocadon Farm said 'Crocadon has always been about more than a restaurant- it’s about learning through doing, respecting the land, and growing something lasting'.
