Inverness city centre restaurant Aye Eat to ‘close immediately’ announce owners
The owners of city centre restaurant Aye Eat have announced it will close immediately.
Based on the High Street and having been run by David and Roberta Shayer since spring 2024, they are now selling the business after the passing of David’s father.
The couple told the Inverness Courier: “It is with deep regret that we announce the closure of Aye Eat, effective immediately.
“We want to extend our sincere thanks to all our valued customers for your support, to our local suppliers for standing by us, and to our amazing staff for their hard work and dedication.
“This was not an easy decision. It comes after the passing of David’s father on October 12, a loss that has deeply affected our family.
“It made us reflect on how short life is, how much time the restaurant demands, and how important it is for us to be present for our three young children and one another.
“We kindly ask for your understanding and respect as we grieve and focus on supporting David’s mum in Elgin and spending time with our family.
“Thank you again for being part of our journey. Your kindness and support have meant the world to us.”
