A popular Sutton steakhouse is set to close its doors to the public next week.
Bar and Block Sutton, on St Nicholas Way, has announced that it will close to the public on September 3.
The restaurant has warned customers that some food and drink options may not be available during their final visits.
A message on the restaurant's website says: “We hope to see you again before this restaurant closes to the public on 3 September 2026.”

“In the lead-up to closure, some food & drink options may not be available during your next visit.”
Customers have also been advised to contact the restaurant directly if they are hoping to visit for Bottomless Brunch or Sunday Roast, as availability may vary.
The closure will not mean the end of food and drink services at the site.
Premier Inn guests staying at the adjoining hotel will continue to be able to enjoy breakfast, evening meals and drinks throughout their stay after the restaurant closes to the public.

The steakhouse is part of the Bar + Block chain, which was launched by Whitbread in 2016, and was introduced as an all-day steakhouse, serving steaks, burgers, cocktails and other food and drink.
The Sutton restaurant is now among 20 Bar + Block sites across the UK and Northern Ireland due to close to the public on September 3.
The closures are part of a major shake-up by Whitbread, the company behind Premier Inn.
Whitbread has decided to exit its branded restaurant businesses as it focuses on its hotel operation.
The company is withdrawing from several restaurant brands, including Bar + Block, Beefeater, Brewers Fayre, Table Table and Cookhouse + Pub.
The move will see a large number of restaurant sites close, with some expected to be converted into additional Premier Inn bedrooms.
Other sites are expected to be sold as Whitbread concentrates on its hotel business.
Whitbread has said the changes will allow it to simplify the business and focus investment on Premier Inn.
