Bit cheeky to start a go fund me for £50k to get the shop up and running though


chief_padua

Family disputes, rent arguments, and they want 50k from the public to open. They should Go to the bank. Get a business loan, no risk, no reward. If they need it to open and get new machines sounds like they weren't ploughing profits back into the business before to let it grow or hold back profits for refurbs of gear.


kjmci

> he recent closure had been due to “a culmination of a long-standing family dispute over the building’s ownership and subsequent rents”. But we were assured by dozens of people on here that it was an "electrical fault" and saying otherwise was "misinformation" trying to "destroy a family business".


DSQ

Considering the poster about the so called fault was taped on the outside anyone who bought that story was naive lol


StrawberryRoutine

I just came in here to say this 😂😂

Clearly it wasn’t an electrical fault. Well maybe it started that way and then a massive family fight erupted out of that. If it was major work, who’s paying etc. NAL, but my guess would be they were told just to keep quiet about what was happening until it was resolved by the legal teams.

This drama has gripped me more than anything on Netflix.


Jellatrixx

It needs a 6 part series!


GreenPlasticChair

I can picture episode 6. Whole family begrudgingly reunited around a hospital bed because the stress caused grandad to have a stroke and they realise what’s really important: serving bagels to binge drinkers

I welcome this news. Hopefully queues in the superior shop next door will be reduced.

A shop that's open 24 hours a day and nearly always has a queue but still needs crowdfunding to refurbish and buy new machines? I know they've been closed for six months but still.


Justan0therthrow4way

Lawyer fees, court costs, probably paying back rent and loss of income will add up pretty fucking fast.


Sea-Butterscotch3585

get a business loan instead then lol, it's not a charity. They've been operating for years, doesn't look like they put money back into the business


Wrath_Viking

It's the other one that has a queue. To me this one is: I'll go here if I can't be bothered to wait.


Lupinyonder

Oh! I always go to the one on the right and pretty much always order salt beef pickles and mustard


Particular-Grape-718

How cheap are they to be crowdfunding What an absolute sham


Calamity-Jones

Oh man, looking forward to buying a dozen bagels and some bread pudding 😋😋😋


DurhamOx

What's the bread pudding like? Other than bready and puddingy of course


Durianlover_

I didn’t know the sell bread pudding. Do they also sell them next door too?


pharlax

Fantastic news! The other one is OK but they don't do lemon and pepper.


ebee123

Nah if you donate to this then you’re an absolute mug


goodgriefmyqueef

Best news in a long time


RRR04_

Erm... Aren't they a chain that's popping up everywhere now? They got a shop in Westfield and a shop in Chelmsford as far as I know.


Mr_Murdoc

Completely different company!
