Riverside development April start

So the town centre does have old school grocers, fish mongers and butchers.
Wouldn't it be great if instead of whining about what they think the town doesn't have, but spend the time on finding these things out and actually visit and spend money in these places instead of the easy and lack of quality option of tesco and asda types.
let's see people put away all this talk and support these smaller places.
my guess is people don't really want too. What a great idea so these places don't completely disappear forever

My daughter spent some time with my parents last week and had dinner (lunch for non-Doxites) and was cooked some bacon from Tomlinson's butchers and said that it was the best she'd ever tasted in all her full 16 years of her life. True dat.
There is plenty going on at the former creperie place.
they seem to be doing plenty including completely gutting the place.
They have recently finished scraping the old paint from the outside and repainted which us clearly evident. That said I doubt all the scaffolding that is up around their entrance for county buildings and blocking some access is making the decision for them right now.
It is not up to you JM to decide when someone should open their business and wouldn't it be novel if you reigned on the horse manure that comes our of that hole and give these people a chance instead of slagging them off.
That's the problem with social media and less than bright Internet trolls, easy to criticise from afar and behind a keyboard yet don't have the balls nor mental clout to do anything worthwhile themselves. Wink wink lol

No irony, just needs to said when some just piss over others' parades and have nothing good nor to say on good or positive things.
it can be humorous at times but it isn't on every god damn post. It is boring to slag and poke fun at everything.
p.s. I am one who has who had the mental strength and balls to do some worthwhile and set businesses and charities. If businesses and companies deserve criticism then let it be through one's experiences or the incompetence of a business.
Who would want to open up a business in town with some of the critics on here take the piss before a place has even been refurbed.

It could be because I lack Gareth's mental strength, but in Riverside I have the impression that store assistants outnumber customers in the evenings. Does it make financial sense to stay open until 8pm?

The restaurant will feature a range of Southern African inspired interiors and artworks, including Slatted Iroko table tops with Domino cast aluminium bases, genuine reclaimed oak flooring, yellow leaf shaped and black side chairs as well as urban inspired graffiti painted ceilings.

It is one of a number of new restaurants set to open along the river as part of the new Waterfront car park development. Other restaurants are set to include Chiquitos and Prezzo.
Work has now also begun on the new multi-screen Odeon cinema, which will stand next to the Waterfront car park.

Sounds really classy and stylish, I don't think.
Must be plenty of reclaimable flooring knocking about it Stafford, with all the buildings that have been demolished.

I tend to steer away from places like Nando's and Starbucks as the accountants have too much influence but it is a good addition to the town.
I wonder if it will be a bit isolated on that side of the river whilst the development remains unfinished between the carpark and the bridge?
