one opens and one closes

[Westmorland]

the new Delhi cafe has opened in the former garage on Church Street, yet Cosy Cafe on Clumber St has closed, so Warsop hasn't really benefited from the new cafe opening as we still have another empty shop in Warsop

I think the reason the Cosy Café closed was something to do with the landlord. That's a big problem with a lot of commercial premises in Warsop, the landlords seem to live out of the area and make it difficult for businesses to stay.

I hope the new café makes a go of it and I wish them all the success.

I have been past the cafe at the top of the Carrs twice today, and both times there were quite a few customers in, so hopefully it will grow to be a very successful business.

I also noticed that there was someone selling burgers etc on the car park near the mill dam.

The owners of the premises where the Cozy Cafe was sited are the same ones that own the row of shops next to it on Sherwood Street, as well as a couple of other shops on Sherwood Street, along with the two shops on Clumber Street, where the pet shop and flower shops were.

Hopefully, they will all be sold at auction now that they are all empty.

one of the Landlords has gone bankrupt

personally I would like to see the shops from the side of the Chemist to the corner demolished and two new large stone built single storey buildings built

It's such a pity the same landlord owns so many of our shops!

Has Eric closed his pet shop

Yes he has Al .

Eric was on about retiring anyway.
I think having such a short lease on the shop had a lot to do with it.
He couldn't sell the shop, as no one in their right mind would buy a business when they could be shut down within months as the lease expired.

The owner of all the shops mentioned previously went into liquidation, and the receivers wouldn't allow any of the shops be re-let, despite quite a few requests from people who were willing to try and set up a business in Warsop.
I think because all the shops on their books are now vacant, they will be put up for auction as a job lot.

I know of at least 3 people who were in these shops who wanted to buy them from the receivers, but they were all turned down.
It seems like as the shops lease ended, the receivers refused to re-new them, until eventually all the shops were closed and left empty.
The Cozy Cafe was the last one to close.

I just hope that whoever buys them doesn't try charging high rents for them, because they will never get anyone to rent them out

Unlucky for some

My wife and I went to the Java cafe to try it out this week, and though the food was good, it was expensive! We had a panini, jacket potato, 2 cake slices and two coffes, which came to about £20!
However, our main gripe was the way they serve and charge for this. We had to order coffe from one counter, plus surcharge for eating in, and food from another counter, plus another charge for eating in! We expected having to pay another surcharge when we ordered the cake but didn't have to!
This needs changeing, sureley there should be the facility to order everything from one counter, after all they are right next to each other! And one surcharge, which I suppose is to cover the treck they have to make to bring the order to your table!
