The bassist, 84, is said to be 'devastated' over the closure as it has always meant 'a lot to him'.

A friend of Bill's told The Daily Mail's Richard Eden: 'Bill's devastated that it's had to close, but the Covid-19 pandemic made it impossible to keep going.
'It combined his passions for comfort food and music, and it always meant a lot to him, right up until the end.'
Sticky Fingers, which he named after the 1971 Stones album, was based on Wyman's favourite 'messy' American-style cuisine including burgers and fries, sticky ribs and fajitas.
