Award-winning Superstition Meadery is closing its downtown Phoenix location at the end of business Sunday, owners Jeff and Jen Herbert announced on social media.
‘‘Basically, from ingredients to labor to rent, everything is much more expensive and this rate of increase has not been seen in America for 4 decades,’’ they posted. ‘‘Add that all up, and even with the amazing support of our patrons, business volume simply isn’t making the cut.’’
Superstition, founded in Prescott in 2014, launched what it called ‘‘the world’s first mead and food pairing restaurant’’ on the northwest corner of Washington and 11th Street in Phoenix in 2020.
