Mr Palmer took over the building which had previously housed a chocolatiers and coffee shop.

He said: “The business rates are causing us great difficulties.

“We’ve appealed to the council. Business rates are too high, they are extortionate.

“We’re hoping to have this resolved and will keep our customers updated.”
