Knaresborough joy after Drake’s Fisheries re-opens
Drake’s Fisheries at 3-5 Silver Street, Knaresborough, re-opened on Thursday with a new pink-themed interior.
The popular restaurant and take-away closed last September, with the former manager Jaime Wilson, blaming rising costs and rents. He had run the business for 25 years.
Now, it will be run by Karley Thompson-Drake, along with sister Sara Drake.
