A new halal fried chicken takeaway is offering free meals for every customer on opening day.
Philadelphia based on Whalley New Road in Bastwell will have its grand opening at 5pm today. To celebrate customers will be given one free meal per customer all evening.
Philadelphia takes up the spot opposite the Shandar Sweet House on the corner of Mitton Street. The premises have undergone extensive renovations recently.
Up until now the nearest Philadelphia was in Manchester’s Cheetham Hill.
Customers were quick to welcome the brand to Blackburn.
One said: “This place is going be rammed.”
Another said: “I use to go to the one in Manchester
“Can't wait for it too open round the corner from where I am.”
The takeaway will open on a stretch which also have a Frangos and a Dixey Fried Chicken.
