'Twas the night before opening, and all through the shop,
The fryers were ready, the counters a top!
The menus were printed, the sign hung with care,
In hopes that the villagers, soon would be there! π
It's almost time to open the doors to Grandpa's, a little dream that's taken a lot of hard work, late nights, and endless pints at Crinnions to bring to life!
We couldn't have done it without the amazing people who have helped us along the way! A huge thank you to:
π¨ Our Uncle Darren - For lighting the place up, quite literally, and always being on the other end of the phone when we needed you.
πͺ Joiner Bruce - For bringing our vision to life with your craftsmanship, from counters to cupboards, you've been an absolute legend.
πΏ D Young Plumbing & Heating Ltd - For fitting every pipe and tap to perfection, making sure we're ready to serve from day one.
π§° Reece Ellison - For laying the perfect floor, the finishing touch that brought everything together.
πͺ Stephen Elders Plastering - For smoothing out every wall and giving us the perfect blank canvas, we couldn't have done it without you.

Finally we would like to say a big thank you to every single family member and friend who has supported us along the way. Thank you for your endless patience, love and encouragement. And of course to everyone in the village who has already shown us so much kindness and excitement!
