Burger and loaded fries takeaway will open late to serve Chapel clubbers
Smashing Stack will open at 37 Milford Street, directly opposite The Chapel Nightclub, at the end of June.
The building used to be Lee's Fish Bar, which closed suddenly at the start of this year. It is understood that the owners have retired.
Paper signs in the window say the new venture will offer smash burgers and loaded fries, and the 'best deals' will be available online.

A website, www.smashingstack.co.uk, does not have any more information about the venture. Companies House says it will be run by Salisbury local Kai White.
When Lee's closed, one customer said: 'I heard he shut and is not re-opening; just going to enjoy retirement. Such a shame. Fantastic food and such a lovely couple.'

Mastercard has extended its partnership with Uber, focusing on improving payment solutions for drivers, couriers, and Mastercard users on the Uber platform. As part of this collaboration, Uber will utilise a variety of Mastercard products and services, including Mastercard Move for real-time disbursements, Mastercard One Credential to streamline the payment experience, and Mastercard Gateway capabilities for collections, to bolster its business operations. The Uber Pro Card, which Mastercard currently supports in the US and Canada, has been renewed in those markets and will see an expansion into new regions, including the UK. This card enables Uber drivers and couriers to receive instant payments at no cost after each trip or delivery, along with benefits such as leading cash-back rewards on fuel purchases, according to Mastercard. Mastercard co-president of Global Partnerships Sherri Haymond said: 'This partnership connects over 3.5 billion cards and more than 150 million merchants that accept Mastercard globally together with Uber's community of over 8.5 million earners and 170 million users worldwide. 'By leveraging Mastercard's end-to-end payment solutions, this deepened work will provide integrated, trusted and seamless payment experiences for Uber's workers, small business owners, and consumers while also supporting Uber's growth.' In conjunction with this expansion, the Uber Pro Card will also enhance payment experiences by incorporating Mastercard One Credential, a single digitally connected credential that provides greater payment options. Additionally, Uber's global customer base will gain access to Mastercard's consumer payment products and services, including its Offers Platform, which will introduce unique benefits and added value for Mastercard cardholders purchasing delivery and mobility services on Uber's platform. Mastercard Gateway, the company's global processing and fraud prevention solution, will also be employed to enable Uber to accept a diverse range of digital transactions swiftly and securely. Uber vice president of Global Commerce Karl Hebert said: 'We could not be more excited to be deepening our relationship with a similarly forward-thinking and innovative business like Mastercard.

Restaurant tycoon Page opens new chapter with Tasty deal
One of Britain's most prolific restaurant industry entrepreneurs is in talks to raise millions of pounds in a deal that would see him take the helm at Tasty, the London-listed leisure group. Sky News has learnt that David Page, who previously ran chains including PizzaExpress and Gourmet Burger Kitchen, is seeking close to £10m of new funding from institutional investors. If successfully implemented, the deal would see Mr Page installed as executive chairman of Tasty, which would be renamed Bow Street Group on the London Stock Exchange. Money latest: Tasty, which owns the dim t and Wildwood casual dining brands, would acquire a cash shell owned by Mr Page and associates as part of the deal. It would then seek to acquire a number of brands, for which it would act as an incubator. Nick Wong, who worked with Mr Page at two of his previous ventures, would become Bow Street Group's finance chief if the plan is successful. Tasty launched a restructuring plan last year which saw more than a third of its 54 sites jettisoned. Recent trading at the company is said to have improved, although it continues to face the headwinds of inflationary cost pressures and the impact of tax increases which trade body UK Hospitality recently warned would result in a jobs bloodbath across the industry. As part of Mr Page's fundraising plans, existing and proposed board members would commit more than £1m to a share placing, according to restaurant sector insiders. The entrepreneur's career in the industry has spanned more than three decades, with the 1993 flotation of PizzaExpress a milestone. He then floated Clapham House Group, which included The Real Greek concept, in London a decade later, before selling it. Mr Page's subsequent venture, Fulham Shore, and its Franco Manca pizza chain were sold to Toridoll Holdings of Japan in 2023 for £93m. Sources said his plans included a review of Tasty's existing sites The fundraising is being coordinated by Cavendish and Allenby Capital, the investment banks. A spokesman for Mr Page declined to comment, while Mr Plant did not respond to a call seeking comment.
