Here's the Facebook message in full:

We regret to inform you all that because of unforeseen personal reasons of the owners they have sadly decided to close down pizza public for now. There maybe the possibility of reopening in the future. Nonetheless we appreciate all of you who have cared and loved the public in its growing pains and successes. We will keep you all posted if things should change. Thanks again to you all.
