Just thought I would put this on the grapevine - went to the new Morrisons and the end unit by the sea wall has a notice in it that it will be taken by HOme Bargain. There are jobs listed in the window for manager, deputy manager etc.

Really? Disappointed in this I was hoping there would be restaurants and bars there. Home bargains is a massive let down!

Home bargains is a top shop, 39p for a 500ml bottle of pepsi, were everyone else charges £1+ for it.......

Yes I'm not arguing the fact its good for bargains but for a brand new development I was expecting alot more from these units. I've heard there will be a nandos there which is more along the line of places I expected.

Ahh you were hoping for a few decent restaurants etc etc. I suppose the outlets go to the highest bidder, but a good mix would be nice!

why the hell would we need a home and bargain next a supermarket?

More to the point.... Why not?
Hasn't New Brighton/Wallasey already got enough pubs!

if there is a cinema and bowling down there, places to eat and drink afterweards is more ideal for the area, especially in the summer when its going to be nice

Bowling already exists, yes there is a cinema, a cafe in morrisons and I believe other places are opening to eat and drink, along with others already there.

I think the restaurants and bars will be overlooking the lake. Personally I quite like the store, esp for canned and bottled drinks for the kids etc, cat litter and crisps. Everywhere else is more than double the price. And its free parking so we dont have to pay when we go to Liscard.

but its just not very classy as a shop for down there it is more suited to liscard were its full of pound and discount shops

Might not be classy but they sell affordable beach items in summer, buckets and spades, kiddies armbands, goggles, inflatables, body boards and wet suits.

Plus they will make a fortune on kites for the Wirral Kite weekend.

why is this in the news section?

MODS?

lol - i started it and just clicked on new topic so i guess its my fault. Sorry!!

shame on u julie haha, it will get moved don't worry

No worries, just wondered why it was still here.

A lot of the lake facing units have applied for planning consent for restaurant/bar use - so there will be a few.

i really look forward to drinking a frappacinno whilst over looking the lake on a nice warm day that will be awsome

the managers jobs, assistant manager and supervisor jobs went in sept, they have all of them ready just waiting for start date...
just didn't want ppl building hopes up for jobs that ain't there...sorry

and watching some numpty jumping off the railings into the lake?

haha at least it should be a bit cleaner in there now, good plac to catch crabs without sexual activity haha

have slapped my wrist !!

not been to a good plac in a while......

If these topics aren't on the columns to the left or right of the "front page", I think people a lot of the time miss them, I only spot stories about pubs etc. when they're on the "front page" a lot of the posts stick around for days on end when they possibly don't warrant it....anyone agree?

You're better to click on Active Topics - then you'll the latest threads / posts.

Yes I know this is , just answering the question

Quite right we need more pound shops, kebab houses and charity shops. I hate walking to liscard, charity / pound capital Of the uk.

In case anyone is unaware this is a piss take. A multi millionpound development that had ruined the skyline of new Brighton on a fake promise of a new attraction being created (out door pool and gym) which has now been scrapped. It's just a matter of time before it becomes a lidl. It's a joke. Too many people have received brown envelopes on this project, I would love to get in to it and discover how this mess happened. Be a few councellors and mp's looking at jail time I think.
