What was the name of the fish and chips place that used to be there? Anyone remember?
Oooh, I don’t know but a fish and chips place that close to my house would be both awesome (for the taste buds) and dangerous (for the butt)
Wasn’t it owned by the ex-wife of some well-known English author?
Jim. something with Jim in the name. Which referred to the title of one of the novels, or a character in the novel.
Lucky Jim’s. She was the ex of Kingsly Amis. Good fish and chips wrapped in newspaper!
Yes! Thanks.
Yes, but the health department quickly made them drop the (authentically English) newspaper wrap and switch to waxed paper.
Although Lucky Jim’s Fish & Chips didn’t last long, the British novelist Martin Amis, son of Kingsley Amis, spent a chuck of his formative childhood years growing up in Ann Arbor.
Darn health department ;)
Nothing seems to last there very long…I hope whatever goes in does well!
Seems like both China on the Run and Bev’s lasted a pretty long time. I know China on the Run closed because Lisa Parola was moving on to other things, not because the business wasn’t doing well. Do I don’t think it’s totally cursed, but it is in a very odd location.
