This is a follow-up to photographs of Robins Corner Café, 14-15 West Parade (on a corner of Queen Street) recently posted in this blog. Here on your right in the above photo is the scene before the corner cafe was built.
Judging by styles of dress, the picture appears to be from the 1920s. Previous occupier of the Robins site is revealed to have been a coach office: Rhyl & Potteries Motors.
On the opposite corner was and still is Savoy Enterprises, 7-13 West Parade, owned by the Trehearn family. Their Savoy corner reached a pinnacle of fame in the 1990s as the Bistro night club. My thanks to Peter Trehearn for the picture.
