A growing fast food chain has been given the green light to open in Crewe, one of several new eateries setting up shop in the town centre.

Applicant, Mr Vinayak Abbott, of Flame & Ice, had applied for a change of use from Class E to a hot food takeaway at 26 Market Street, formerly the PIP Consultation Centre.

Flame & Ice, which operates in the likes of Birmingham, Coventry, Dudley, Hyde, Kidderminster, and more, sells burgers, milkshakes, smoothies and desserts.

Set to open from 11am to 11pm, a new seating area, serving area, counter and kitchen will be constructed at the 1,152 sq.ft. Crewe town centre unit.

A new extraction flue and fan unit will also be erected, along with alterations to the shop front.

Satisfied with the proposals, a Cheshire East planning officer said: "It is noted the site does not reside within the 'hot food take away restriction zone' in Crewe.

"The proposed development is acceptable in this instance and comply with local planning policy and the National Planning Policy Framework."

Flame & Ice is one of several new eateries planning to open in the town centre, with Dixy Chicken and ISO Sushi opening on Market Street and Smash-on-Trent launching on Queensway.
