Plans have been submitted to convert a former Crewe town centre café into a new Kurdish restaurant - three years after it closed during the COVID-19 pandemic.

On Tuesday 21 March, Mr Nawzad Rahim, applied for a change of use from the former Grazziella's café, Market Street, into a new Kurdish restaurant.

The new Crewe Kurdish restaurant would be located on the ground floor - like the former breakfast and lunch eatery.

Grazziella's was sold at auction under Butters John Bee on 21 November last year (Ryan Parker).

Grazziella's was a popular place to go to in Crewe town centre for many years.

Customers often visited to enjoy a hot drink, omelette, breakfast and sandwich.

The former eatery opened last century but fell into hard times during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and never reopened.

The new Kurdish restaurant plans to have several tables for a seating area, as well as a new counter, two display units, a toilet and a kitchen preparation area (Cheshire East Planning).

Kurdish food is typical of Western Asian cuisine - largely based on meat and rice.

Likely menu items include kebabs, vegetable dishes, pasta, pastries, rice dishes, dairy products, bread and soups.
