The majority of Chiquito restaurants are set to close permanently as the owners have announced the chain has fallen into administration.

It comes amid struggles to cope with the downturn from coronavirus after the prime minister ordered restaurants to shut as part of tightened social distancing measures.

The Restaurant Group, which also owns Wagamama and Frankie & Benny’s, said it would also permanently close its Food and Fuel chain of pubs in London.
