Castle Brom chippy marks half a century

CHIP, CHIP HOORAY: Cola's Fish Saloon, opposite the Morrisons store

ONE of the longest-running businesses in Castle Bromwich is celebrating its 50th anniversary.
Cola's Fish Saloon, in Chester Road, has been serving hungry locals since 1967.
This week, many residents shared their memories about the chip shop, formerly known as the Hygienic, on the community Facebook page.
Ray Witten wrote: "We lived next door, over the Royal London Insurance Office, in 1970/1971 - it was our first married home.
"As we were then only 18-years-old we struggled for money at the time. The family in the Hygienic always looked after us and fed us when we had little to eat. Wonderful people."
Stacey Shaw said: "Worked here for years whilst doing my nurse training. Couldn't have worked with nicer people."
