Help Save Offbeet & Raise Funds for their Relaunch
Thank you for visiting this GoFundMe page set up by fans of this Plant Based Restaurant, Cookery School and Deli (Featured in Top 30 Veggie Restaurants, rated 9/10 by The Times and The Sunday Telegraph) located in Hampshire.
Offbeet have been served notice at their current location over donuts.. yes, you read that right! The Landowner (Barker Mill Estates) are evicting Offbeet, a small independent business with 8 staff, stating that the way Offbeet's donuts have been marketed in recent weeks 'goes against our core values around health and wellbeing'. This eviction could not have come at a worse time, small businesses are under immense pressure to remain afloat during a global pandemic. Offbeet have 6 months to vacate the premises.
UPDATE 18/3/21: Following a brief search, Offbeet have secured a new premises at The Retreat - New Forest! This is wonderful news but does not diminish the importance of this fund raiser. The move is still likely to result in lost revenue and a potential loss of some of their dedicated and hard working staff.
Offbeet is beloved by those who visit, the food and service are impeccable and it would be a huge loss for those who have built the business from the ground up, their staff and many fans.
Please join us in raising funds to help take the financial pressure off of this business during this unforeseen upheaval. Please donate what you can so we can all enjoy their new premises, delicious dishes and yummy donuts in the not too distant future!
We're behind you Offbeet! X
