DescriptionAccording to Baza, 440 restaurants have already closed in Moscow during the first half of 2026—a figure nearly on par with that of the COVID-19-hit year of 2020 (455). The market is shifting in favor of fast food and affordable coffee shops. If the rate of closures among traditional restaurants continues, by the end of August the capital will break last year’s record (540 establishments). Will the final number of closures exceed 650?
ConditionsYes: if, as of August 31, 2026, according to updated statistics from publications (Baza, Vedomosti, or analytical agencies such as CMWP/SysoevFM), the total number of restaurants in Moscow that have closed since the beginning of the year is ≥ 650
No: if, as of August 31, 2026, the total number of restaurants in Moscow that have closed since the beginning of the year is < 650
