A sign that appeared in a former TSB to say American burger joint Five Guys was opening in Retford has got locals talking. The company already has fast food restaurants in Nottingham city centre and Redfield Way near Showcase Cinema.
The bank has stood empty since May 2022 - one of 70 to close as customers moved towards online banking. A photo of the "coming soon to Retford" notice in the window of the former bank in Carolgate was posted on Retford Information Page on Facebook. One man responded: "Sounds like a burger bar. Make some people happy." One woman posted: "Another fast food place?? I think you need more practical shops, so people can shop locally," while another agreed: "Omg time they opened something we need like a decent clothes shop, men's, women's and children's."Although the original poster was a day late putting it on Facebook, a number of people guessed the signs were an April Fool's prank.
To become a food outlet, it would require planning permission to change the use of the building. However, no application has been made to Bassetlaw District Council. And normally a big-name brand like Five Guys would announce its impending arrival with branded posters and hoardings. Although Nottinghamshire Live hasn't been able to get a response from Five Guys, it's probably safe to assume it's a joke.
