A popular Crewe fish and chip shop is finally set to reopen after overcoming an "unexpected" incident, where a car ploughed through the building.

Coronation Fish Bar, Coronation Street, will be reopening on Wednesday 16 August, just over a year since the business was forced to close.

On August 3, 2022, a grey Audi saloon collided with the Crewe chippy while the owners were on holiday, causing significant structural damage.

Coronation Fish Bar promised it would eventually reopen again, with redevelopment works taking several months to be completed (Coronation Fish Bar).

The driver of the vehicle, a 20-year-old local man, was arrested on suspicion of drink driving and drug driving.
