West, West, West Sussex.
Looks like it's more than a rumour.

The gentrification of Hangleton has begun! Joking aside I hope this helps the small businesses up there get a bit more passing trade.

Used to be Barclay's Bank hence the name unless a pure coincidence or possibly just rhyming slang which isn't a nice way to refer to their intended clientele

Nope. Definitely the same people as the one in town. You people in Hangleton are very lucky!

I am very pleased with the arrival of Bankers. Mr C's has been at a very poor standard for years. I'll still throw them a bone here and there, but they won't see out the year.

It's strange how quickly Bankers have moved in, there was a bit of a fight before Uncle Sams moved in, no opposition this time so definitely the death knell for Mr C's. It is a shame, I do think my generally strong immune system is in part down to their hygiene standards.

Mr C's has been shit for about 4 years, completely put me off fish and chips. Hopefully Bankers will bring back my Enjoyment of fish and chips, even a decent sausage would do.

Bankers is moving into what was previously a bank. Many years ago, before it was a bank, it was a fish and chip shop I believe, so maybe that helped with the planning permission?

I wonder how long before a Costa or Nero's comes to the area? I reckon 2-3 years.

The arse end of Hangleton

I'd be very surprised if they did. Obviously Mr C's will now close down, there's the old undertakers and the NUMEROUS hair cut places ( including the new one in the old pet shop ) - all of which are ripe for new business but with the bakers and the sandwich shop I doubt a chain coffee shop would even consider moving to Hangleton .... thankfully.

Good news as I'm not a fan of Mr C's, however Smileys at the other end of Hangleton (and just round the corner from me), surprisingly does really decent Fish and Chips. I was a real snob and didn't go there for ages when I moved in as I thought "They do pizza and burgers and fish and chips and kebabs, they have got to be awful", yet I've been really impressed with the pizzas and the fish and chips.

Blimey that means Bankers will be the best restaurant in Hangelton. Not that there's much competition in that area ! The gentrification of Hangelton may be starting albeit very slowly.

How about reducing the prices.
They are just potatoes sliced and fried.
And Cod is no longer an endangered species.
Some of these more pretentious fish & chip shops are stupidly expensive.
Last time I was in London I got fish & chips from a very posh shop in Southgate, I nearly fainted.
A lot of fish down here is straight off the boat and into the fryer, no transport, no market, and it's still too expensive for what it is.
Over & out.

I bet the chippy round the corner is chuffed with the news

Which reminds me. Did The Chip Basket people ever open up anywhere else? I recall you, or someone, said they were looking but were contractually obliged not to compete for a specified period.

I would not go in there because they do pizza and burgers and fish and chips and kebabs.
