Petit Paris, a charming deli and wine bar in Manchester, announces sudden closure

Petit Paris, a lovely little wine bar and deli in the heart of Manchester, has announced its shock closure.

The cosy spot on King Street shared the news ‘with big sadness’ over the weekend, writing: “Petit Paris, c’est fini”.

The French deli was loved for its incredible selection of wines, as well as its huge cheese boards and sandwiches you could order.

In summer, it had plenty of seating outside on the beautiful cobbled King Street where you could sit and people-watch with a glass of rose in hand.

Petit Paris wrote in a statement shared on Instagram: “Brexit and current climate for independent businesses didn’t encourage us to continue the adventure.”

The local business is still up for a Manchester Food and Drink Award, where it’s nominated for Food and Drink Retailer of the Year.

Petit Paris’s full statement reads: “Petit Paris c’est fini….

“It is with big sadness that we have to announce the closure of our lovely deli in Manchester. It’s been 2 incredible years and we our grateful for all the support our customer showed us and our amazing staff that worked hard everyday!

“Thank you to all local social media that provide us great visibility and put us with the best in town.

“Brexit and current climate for independent businesses didn’t encourage us to continue the adventure.

“If you want to support one more time go on and vote for us at the Manchester food & drink festival for 2024.

“Please keep supporting small independent businesses! Merci.”
