An ice cream spot in Festival Place has closed.
The G Factory dessert restaurant, opposite Burger King, has been closed for the last month, with its shutters remaining down.
The restaurant, which originally opened in December 2022, offers gelato, waffles, crepes, hot cakes and sundaes.
A spokesperson from We Are Destination, the PR agency for Festival Place, said that ‘the landlord is aware of the situation and is liaising with the tenant directly.’
Google details the branch is still open but the Gazette visited the branch and found it closed at 12.30 pm, when the operating hours state it should be open.

The original restaurant sat in Tonbridge High Street, in Kent, and closed in March 2026.
