Manx takeaway and shop plans for former Glen Helen restaurant

A former restaurant in the west of the Island could become a takeaway selling Manx produce, if planners give the green light.

The Isle of Man Farm Shop Company, based in Douglas, has applied for permission to change the use of the Swiss Chalet in Glen Helen.

In its application, the company says it plans to restore the building, which was damaged by a fire in 2020, and sell locally-produced food and drink.

And it says if given permission, it would also sell Manx items such as clothing, jewellery, ceramics, knitwear, books and artwork.
