    An American-themed 1950s diner in Harrogate has appointed liquidators and applied to be wound up.

    The Hub Caffe Ltd, which trades as The Fabulous 50s Diner, opened two years ago on the site of the former Cafe Rita on Bower Road.

    An announcement on official public record website The Gazette said Richard Hunt of SFP Restructuring Limited in London had been appointed liquidator on July 21.

    The Gazette also reported a general meeting of the company on the same date resolved to voluntarily wind-up the business.

    The announcement, dated July 27, is authorised by director Wagdy Mansour.

    The diner, which is still trading, has images of Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley outside. Its menu includes milk shakes, ice-cream sundaes, waffles, burgers and hot dogs.

    Mr Mansour and his wife Shirley ran Cafe Rita for eight years.

    When the venue reopened as The Fabulous 50s Diner after covid, Mr Mansour told the Stray Ferret they had decided to go for something completely different. He said:

    “We thought it was time for a change. So we thought about a theme and realised we didn’t have any American diners in Harrogate.”


    The diner has not replied to the Stray Ferret's requests for comment.
