Another useful Brentford shop bites the dust. I never found the staff that worked in Martins as the friendliest people in the world if im honest.

I wonder why it is closing? Would it be lack of custom? I've hardly ever been in the shop although it has been there for many years.

Im told its closing next month the lease has run out.

Great place for a post office?

More likely, Dominos.

Dominoes are already coming to Albany Parade. More likely a Subway if the rumors on Facebook are correct.

Yep Subway is what i have heard.

Fantastic, an underground station at last!

Soon Brentford will be an American fast food take-away heaven.

Thats what people want. Then after Brexit we will be able to have beefburgers with hormones.

Did you not hear of 'Horsemeatgate'Nicholas..all under the watchful eye of our EU masters?
To be fair, Subway probably do some half-decent sandwiches but what is it with all this take-away, Uber Eats etc stuff?
Supply and demand.

Possibly, although I would like to know if the rates have been increased massively or not.
Excellent idea. Therefore won't happen.

At least there will be a choice of places for the contractors working on our regeneration to eat, profits for kfc and possibly the 3rd subway in this area, but not much for us unfortunate ones who live here

My! Brentford really is coming up in the world at last. A Domino's pizza replacing a very good cafe, a KFC and now a Subway sandwich bar. The icing on the cake a nine storey car park. The 'degeneration' of Brentford continues apace.

An excellent post. I enjoyed reading it (twice). So sad in reality though. Thanks.

I heard Martins is not going to be a Subway but will be a Costa!
