A Japanese fast food giant has announced it will close its doors in Australia.
MOS Burger will close all three of its Australian locations at the end of August, bad news for loyal customers of the popular restaurant.
The chain, which is second in size only to McDonald’s in Japan, has three branches in south-east Queensland in Sunnybank, Southport and Upper Mount Gravatt.
“After much consideration, we have made the difficult decision to close all MOS Burger locations in Australia,” MOS Burger wrote on Instagram on Friday.
‘We are incredibly grateful for the support and love you have shown us over the years.
‘Serving you and being a part of your lives has been an honor, and we will always cherish the memories we created together.
‘Thank you for making MOS Burger a special place in Australia. We look forward to continuing to spread happiness and good food wherever the MOS Burger journey takes us.
‘Stay tuned for updates and visit us one last time before we say goodbye.’

An email has been sent to the chain’s loyalty club members stating that they must redeem all remaining points before August 31.
Devoted fans of the burger chain, which first opened in Australia in Southport in 2011, shared their reactions online.
“My heart is broken… my studio food… I’ll miss you forever MOS Burger,” one person commented on the announcement post.
“So sad! I love the iced tea as a drink option instead of soda and their service is always 10/10. Thanks MOS,” wrote another.
“I’m heartbroken. My life is ruined. Things aren’t easy in Japan either. What has happened to this world? I’m in mourning,” shared a third.
“The only good burger chain,” commented a fourth.
