A restaurant owner has warned that diners could face at least €4 extra on a main course as price increases hit businesses “left, right and centre”.

He now believes the industry is “running on borrowed time”.

“Catering sized packs of chicken have shot up 25% and chips are up 30%. We have been told we won’t be able to get chunky chips soon as the skin is being used to feed pigs due to a shortage of meal. “Services have risen 10% and we put our wages up by up to 18% in an effort to keep hold of the staff we have because many of them left the industry during the pandemic.

“The reliefs the Government afforded us in the pandemic were a lifeline but now it looks as if they will have been wasted.
