Demolition work at the former Frankie and Benny's site started in June to make way for two new fast food units.
More than a year ago, The Courier and Weekly News shared a story about plans for the fast food chains KFC and Five Guys to open on the site getting the go ahead from Warwick District Council.
KFC used to be located on the same shopping park before the unit was closed and demolished in 2016. It was then turned into a retail unit.
In 2018, Frankie and Benny’s closed its site on the shopping park – which had also has a fire on site the same year.
The new units at the shopping park are now starting to take shape.
Both KFC and Five Guys have been contacted multiple times for a comment about the work and anticipated opening dates but to date neither business has replied.
