Jeanie’s Cafe in Liscard closes after 34 years

A popular cafe, Jeanie’s, has closed for good after 34 years in Liscard, Merseyside. The cafe, known for its tasty coleslaw and friendly service, had a loyal customer base. It was located in the Cherry Tree Shopping Centre and became a favorite spot for many families. Jeanie’s had temporarily closed a short time ago due to staffing issues. Initially, a spokesperson indicated that it would reopen. However, a new sign announced the permanent closure, thanking customers for their support over the years. Customers expressed their sadness on social media. Many shared memories of their visits and how the cafe was part of their routines. One regular mentioned going there often with their child, while another said it felt like losing a part of the community. The closure of Jeanie’s reflects a larger trend affecting many retailers. Shopping habits are changing, with more people choosing to shop online. This shift, along with rising costs, has led to many shops closing across the UK. The British Retail Consortium has warned that numerous retail sites will shut down this year. As local cafes and shops continue to face challenges, communities are feeling the impact. Many residents are now left reminiscing about what Jeanie’s meant to them and looking for ways to keep the spirit of their beloved cafe alive.
