The restaurant in this photo is at the end of All Saints St. My mother Margaret Huggins and my stepfather Clifford managed it during the summer of 1952 or 53? We lived at 24, Tackleway.
I visited it every day during the summer holidays and still have wonderfull memories of crispy bread rolls filled with egg and tomatoes and drinking glasses of vimto.
Does anyone else remember it? -
I remember this being 'Harry's old town bingo' in the late 1960's, a place i used to frequent a lot as we lived at number 53 Tackleway, next to the church. It was prize bingo operated by twin sisters who were the owners aunts as I recall. The owner at the time was Harry Symonds, who now owns the Deluxe. My interest in the place was the amusement machines that were there, trying to earn a penny or three as a 10 year old, and being turned out by my ear after giving the machine a gentle nudge, to encourage pennies to drop.
