Lyons and Co. Ltd Bristol

Lyons and Co. Ltd  Caterers, Castle Street in Bristol

Lyons and Co. Ltd - Caterers

The business was listed as a restaurant in a local guide dated 1938, but is remembered as a tea shop. Frequented by many before attending the Regent Cinema, which was opposite, Lyons also had premises at 5 Wine Street. 

The building survived the blitz but Lyons vacated the premises in November 1940 and by 1944 it was occupied by Montague Burton. It was the last shop to trade in Castle Park. 

First tea shop opened in London.
