Fish and chip shop burned down in Mumbles pier fire set to re-open

A restaurant which was completely destroyed in a massive fire on Mumbles Pier will reopen this year. The huge fire in September 2022 completely ruined the popular Copperfish restaurant at the end of the pier. A nearby community room which was formerly Cinderella's nightclub was also decimated in the blaze.

After work was finally able to start on the fish and chip restaurant, bar and takeaway last month, staff at Mumbles Pier have officially announced its re-opening. A post on the Mumbles Pier website states:

"After the devastating fire in 2022 we have all missed the popular Fish and Chip restaurant that called Mumbles Pier its home. The popular restaurant and Old Nightclub were completely destroyed in the fire but through grit and determination April 2023 saw work begin to rebuild the restaurant in the surviving adjacent building. The owners of Mumbles Pier; Fred and Bert Bollom hope to have the takeaway aspect of Copperfish up and running by July 2023 ready for the summer season – with the restaurant opening by Winter 2023."
