Southport’s newest chippy is enjoying serving dine-in customers at its restaurant for the first time today, after the Covid-19 national lockdown ended.
Xander’s Fish Bar, on Eastbank Street, opened two weeks ago on November 16. But with the lockdown rules in place they were only allowed to do home deliveries or receive orders for collection.
Today they are delighted to be fully open for the first time.
They said: “After the Government announcement, we are happy to inform people that Xander’s Fish Bar is now for customers to dine in!
“We are excited to be welcoming our first customers in our restaurant. We look forward to serving you!
“The safety of our customers and staff is essential to us and so we have implemented several measures in line with Government guidelines to ensure that when dining at our premises, you can be at ease.”
These measures include:
- Adhering to the 1m distancing rule
- Providing employees with all necessary PPE
- Hand sanitising products
