Fish & Chips, Shropshire

FISH AND CHIP TAKEAWAY in Shrewsbury for Sale.

This outstanding fish and chip shop has traded here successfully for over 50 years and has been under the same family ownership since 1986. A firm favourite and highly regarded for its wide choice of menu items, from traditional fish and chips and pies, to grilled items such as kebabs and fried chicken. Weekly Turnover £3,000. Located at the head of a parade of shops and just a short distance from Shrewsbury town centre, the takeaway benefits from a good volume of trade from passing workers, locals and from the huge amount of industry and commercial businesses that surround it. Ease of drive-up parking is a tremendous positive for the traders in this parade. The business is run at a fairly low-key pace by its two working owners plus some part-time help during busier times. Ambitious new owners could certainly take fuller advantage of all of the modern online food delivery hubs such as Just Eat and Deliveroo and offer deliveries to the densely populated communities that surround the shop.
Ground floor lock-up shop, sizeable, glass fronted with large customer ordering area. A separate door leads to the open plan food prep area with a long 3-pan frying range and pay counter facing toward the customers and an area dedicated to grilling kebabs (there are three kebab rotisserie grills) and general stove and oven cooking, all under a highly efficient hooded extraction system.
Toward the back of the catering kitchen there is a wet-room with high-capacity rumbler and chipper, a deep sink pot-wash area, additional food prep counter and lots of cupboard storage. A door leads to a large stores area with external side door for deliveries and two built-in walk-in’s (one fridge and one freezer). Staff WC and small managers office area.
The business is superbly fitted out with tiled floors, tiled or tanked wipe-clean walls and drop ceilings with energy efficient lighting and an air-conditioning unit. The takeaway is comprehensively equipped with a vast amount of commercial quality catering equipment that really must be seen to be fully appreciated. EPC Band C.
