Looking Back: Bolton's new restaurant offered coffee, biscuits and a cigarette for sixpence  17694424

As Bolton entered the post war years, many new businesses sprung up around the town.

On Victoria Square, the Victoria Restaurant opened in July 1948 offering a cup of coffee, biscuit and cigarette for sixpence.

Initially a success, the restaurant experienced dwindling clientele and closed just three years after opening. The impressive building stood on the corner of Howell Croft South.
