There’s a Chinese in ~~Magherafelt~~ Moneymore that’s just called “Calorie”
Used to be a chippy in the town called BJs. It was actually very good indeed. There was usually a large queue out the door.
This was in the south but Pinky Moo Moos was a pretty shite name.
I mean I think that wins? That’s brutal
And the haberdashery next door… “Sew it is”.
Two I remember from the 90s: a fireplace shop called Alexander the Grate, and a place for door handles called Knobs n Knockers
BJ Fish & Chips in Lisburn Town centre in guessing they only sell trout.
For Cod & Ulster
The Fishy Muff
The wee man’s shop the inn shops with the bongs and such
Holemasters, the one with the big brown ring for a logo is the answer, scroll no more
Some Belfast businesses seem to go out of their way to espouse ugliness and low breeding to be blunt about it
Pug Ugly
Dirty Onion
Fix Yer Crack (a mobile phone repair business)
Thirsty Goat
Jeggy Nettle
This shop name actually really bugs me and any time we have to drive past it, I can’t help but mention it to my husband. It just really irks me to no end. It’s terrible for so many reasons
Used to be a chippy in Bangor called ‘A Salt and Battered’. Pun doesn’t really work and it’s in pretty bad taste, but hey, made me laugh.
There was a sandwich shop off the shore road in Belfast I remember called “Sarnie Schwarzenegger”
Always gave me a giggle.

Fix Ur Crack in Bradbury Place always gives me a giggle
Ats us nai in Lisburn, cringe. One of the best though is Sew it Seams, great play on words
There’s a business near me called “Pee Lavery” that does drain and sewer clearance
Saw a van the other day with “Jim’ll Fix It”. That’s just tone deaf as fuck.
Grew up near Bushmills. There used to be a chippy on the Main Street called the Cods Way.
All trouts are targets – fishmongers in larne
There is/was a place in Lisburn that sold fake grass called ‘The Unreal Grass Company’
Don’t know if it’s still there, ‘ Mike hunt, cycle repairs’
