Title: Who Remembers Bodens Chip Shop?
Post by: ironsky2 on October 26, 2014, 05:36:43 PM
This chip shop I remember vaguely having yellow tiles on the walls I think it had an upstairs too. Must have closed in the late 80s or early 90s.

Yes I remember Bodens but can't remember what it was like strangely enough. I'm sure I used it though.
As anyone any photographs

I am so annoyed with myself as I can remember Bodens and the photo is very familiar to me, but I can't remember going inside!!  >:(

Growing old is so annoying !!

I seem to remember Bodens been a long and thin building with 1950s style seating and a long counter at the back also just recall a staircase to another seating area at a guess I think it closed in the 1990s

Yellow & Black tiles? I remember a seating area at the back. Don't know about an upstairs though? clearly there is an upstairs, but don't know what it was used for?
