There's a dog grooming parlour near us called 'Paw favor' and a hairdressers on the top floor of a building called 'Cut Above' The chippy is called 'Ians plaice' Aren't they clever?.... I could never think of anything witty like that.

Do you know any clever names for little businesses?

A hairdresser's in Hove is called Curl Up and Dye

Many years ago I used to attend the family planning clinic in Western Road, Brighton. It was upstairs, the shop below was Sussex Organs

There is a glass supplier in Brighton whose family name is Brick, so it's Bricks for Glass

We've got a drycleaner /laundry called "Pressed for time" and a couple of years ago , when we were in Ireland I saw , and photographed the very same name. I gave a copy to our local "Pressed for time" and he was thrilled to bits! He has it hanging on his wall and says it is their Irish branch! :mrgreen:
