Struggling and outdated: business shuts down Nuremberg local - fresh idea takes over
Sausalitos Restaurant Chain Announces Closure of 22 Branches and Insolvency
The Sausalitos restaurant chain, a popular dining destination for many, has announced that 22 of its branches will close by the end of July. The closures will see the return of these premises to their respective landlords.
The news comes after the chain filed for insolvency in March 2025, with the COVID-19 pandemic and changes in customer behaviour cited as significant factors. Sales at several locations fell behind the previous year's figures, while increased costs and a partly outdated concept also played a role in the chain's insolvency.
Unfortunately, no interested parties were willing to continue the Sausalitos group or selected branches under the existing concept. This has led to nationwide closures, including the Sausalitos branch in Färberstraße, Nuremberg, which has already closed its doors.
However, there is some good news for the Nuremberg branch. It has been announced that the premises will undergo renovation work and reopen under a new concept. The exact nature of this new concept remains undisclosed, and no specific information on the reopening is available at this time.
The Nuremberg branch has announced its closure on July 28, 2025, and will bid farewell on its closure date. It's worth noting that the "Schwarzer Adler" restaurant in Nuremberg has also closed, adding to the city's restaurant landscape changes.

Due to the considerable financial complications faced by Sausalitos, their insolvency filing in March 2025, and the broader impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, several changes in the lifestyle and business sectors are unfolding. The widespread closures of Sausalitos branches, including the one in Färberstraße, Nuremberg, have reshaped the city's restaurant landscape.
