Ponderosa cafe shut for the foreseeable - SV650.org

After a long 'temporary' closure with no updates, it seems the Ponderosa café is going to be shut for the foreseeable future.

It's a shame, it was always nice to stop for a drink, ogle some bikes and gaze at the views.

Blimey! That's a bit of a shock!

It closed at the start of November, supposedly for kitchen upgrades and a bit of interior refurbing (I was up there a few days before the closure and saw the notices).

But there's been no updates on social media, and a couple of people who've had a nosey in through the windows recently have posted that there's no sign of any work having been done, so not quite sure what's going on. It was always pretty busy whenever I went there.
