Harry Ramsden's marks Merseyside return with New Brighton launch

Fish-and-chip chain Harry Ramsden’s has opened the latest outlet in its UK-wide restaurant network at New Brighton’s Marine Point.

Located next to Morrison’s, the 1,750 sq ft restaurant has been decorated with the brand’s new look and provides space for up to 60 diners.

The two-level branch is one of a number of openings for the firm, which last month revealed plans to create 100 jobs in Blackpool with a new £2.4m restaurant in the town’s iconic Tower complex.

The dining offer at Marine Point expanded further in recent weeks. Bella Italia, the Italian restaurant chain, has opened a restaurant at the site as part of a strategy to add 40 restaurants to its network by 2017.
