slordy71 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I thought this was going to be a restaurant,however it appears to be a glorified fish and chip takeaway counter only. Why someone would invest £150-£250k in a franchise (also £70k liquid cash required too!) for a chip shop and locate it where people can't park out front most of the time is beyond me. I understand people can use the coop car park but sometimes it's full and difficult to get a spot. blimey i think this venture is going to be financial suicide:loopy: there are quite a few good quality fish and chip shops locally and this one is hardly going to be any better but certainly more expensive, time will tell, i reckon 6 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bungleboy69 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Well this fish and chip shop is no longer a Harry Ramsdens chain type place. It has been rebranded (or perhaps changed its name) to Swordfish. From the outiside it looks the same, apart from some new signage. I never tried it under the franchised brand as I prefer to support local independent businesses. Has anyone tried it out under the new guise? Would be interesting to know if it has changed owners and also any changes to the prices... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
