A statement posted Dec. 4 on Facebook announced the closure of the North Austin location of Sherlock's Baker Street Pub & Grill at 9012 Research Blvd., Austin.

Two locations of Baker Street Pub & Grill in the Greater Houston area also closed, but the South Austin location at 3003 S. Lamar Blvd., Austin, remains open. An employee from the South Austin Baker Street Pub said Dec. 2 was the pub's final day.

"We would like to thank all of our former and current employees, patrons and bands that made this place amazing," the statement read. "Due to economic impacts this past year and recent Hurricane Harvey, we regretfully have made the difficult decision to close Sherlock's Baker St Pub & Grill Austin's doors effective today. Although the timing of this may be difficult for everyone, we want to assure you that we will provide opportunities for every eligible employee to be placed at another location. We’ve made a lot of friends and we hope that your memories here will last a lifetime. This chapter closes, but another will open soon."
