Right, I was slightly surprised to see that my shop hasn't been mentioned. We opened up Butternut Bikes in a pub in the middle of the pandemic and are cracking along nicely here in Crouch End. The story here sums it all up pretty well - https://bikebiz.com/its-pleasantly-chaotic-and-energetic-butternut-bikes-on-its-north-london-store/
“It’s pleasantly chaotic and energetic” :)
As for Fettle, they were saying only a few months ago that they wanted to open 90 stores. Mind, they also say that they have special super secret booking software, but it's just HubTiger, the same as we use. They are basically funded by JustPark so get free/cheap locations. Like so much in the bike industry these days, funded by venture capital.

Right, we're after a full time and probably a junior/ part time mech. Friendly bike shop who believe in paying people a decent wage, or as much as we can, anyway. Beers and stuff a decent perk, and really lovely customers too, believe it or not.

Hi all,
I work for Hub Vélo, and we've got a Cinelli demo day this weekend - https://www.hub-velo.co.uk/cinelli-demo-test-ride-day-26th-may-hub-velo-london/
If you'd like to ride some steel bikes, then pop down. No charge, no obligation (we're not even allowed to sell the demo bikes anyway). And you get a free cap. We've got a couple of fixies too.
There are Nemo Tigs, Vigorelli Road, Superstars, Pistas, and some I've forgotten.
Hope this is OK to post, it's a good opportunity to go and ride a nice bike for a few hours, and frankly they're taking up half the shop so if you're out riding them, it would help me out.
Cheers,
Gav

We're running this again this year (2018) if you're interested. Route will be up when it's finalised. We had about 100 people last year, so let's see how we go this year!
