Here is some of the construction from Chessington in 2013
January 2nd
The Creaky Cafe the new indoor replacement for Re-Fresh and the Burger Kitchen replacing Burger King continue to be refurbished. Also the Ice Factory appears to be having some work done, not surprising if this was to change with Ben and Jerry’s very popular next door.
January 13th
The Creaky Cafe coming on very nicely, will be yet another indoor place to sit and eat at Chessington. The Burger Kitchen is now blanked off out of view as work continues, and unless I missed it last year the Photo Licence is going to hit for 2013.
February 2nd
The new Creaky Cafe has now opened, the old Burger King is under going a huge front reface as part of the Burger Kitchen refresh. The Vampire/Bubble Works shop has also had a complete re-fit inside ready for the new season.
February 20th
We continue our closed season Chessington updates with a look to how the Burger Kitchen is developing. The fascia looks like it will be similar to recently opened Creaky Cafe, wooden front completely changed from the previous looking buildings. Also the finishing touches to the Creaky Cafe and the strange place for the Vampire parts…
