“Thanks everyone! That’s a wrap! Love you all! ❤️✌” reads the Instagram caption.
The popular Gastown eatery faced huge public outcry after a rat was allegedly found in a bowl of clam chowder. A customer posted an Instagram video of the incident on December 27th and the viral video has hurt the business tremendously.
In a Facebook post, Crab Park Chowdery stated “the fact of the matter is an image has now been presented that is having devastating effects on us a a whole”.
The post also mentions that they went from making “$1500-$2000 a day to $200-$400 a day” after the image went viral.
Crab Park Chowdery, where the rat was found, actually leased a commissary kitchen in the basement of restaurant Mamie Taylor’s.
After the dead rat in chowder incident, Mamie Taylor’s cut ties to the Crab Park Chowdery.
No future plans have been announced by the owner at this moment.
