A much-loved fish and chip restaurant has announced it is to close after 50 years of business - to the shock of loyal customers. The Seafarer in Northwich, Cheshire, has announced it will close its doors later this month.
The restaurant and takeaway, hailed as the "best fish and chips in Cheshire" by loyal fans, has played host to a number of celebrities over the years. That includes Northwich band The Charlatans who hail it their favourite chippy, and football legend George Best.
The announcement of its closure was made on social media, with the restaurant owners saying that it had been a pleasure to serve Northwich and the surrounding area for the past 50 years or so. The restaurant was first opened by the late former Manchester United hero George Best back in April 1971.
