THIS month marks the start of a new era for a popular Stockton Heath venue.

Bus Stop, on London Road, has been sold and is subsequently under new ownership as of today, August 2.

Established four years ago, the business has been on the market since January of this year.

It offers breakfasts, lunches, afternoon teas, coffees and some homemade speciality items.

And as well as hosting private parties, Bus Stop also provides the restaurant experience and the option of a selection of beers, wines and spirits.

Previous owners Lynda and Paul took to Facebook to announce the news to customers.

“Thank you to all our loyal customers for returning after lockdown and supporting us over the last three and a half years of trading.

“We wish the new owners much happiness with Bus Stop.”

One customer replied: “Wishing you all the best for the future take care.”

While another said: “Good luck Lynda and Paul in the next episode of your life.”
