The Spanish Table grocery store is closing after 24 years, primarily due to the 15% tariff on European imports and a depreciating dollar against the euro, which raised prices by approximately 35%. Although the physical store in Berkeley will close, owner Bastian Schoell intends to continue operating the San Francisco location and its online store. The final day of operation is set for August 17, with the store located at 1814 San Pablo Ave., between Hearst Ave. and Delaware St.
