Plans approved for restaurant signs at potential new city site
Sunderland Echo
|October 20, 2025
Proposals for a national restaurant chain to open in Sunderland city centre have taken a step forward, after council development chiefs approved plans for signage.
Pepe's Piri Piri signage agreed.
Sunderland City Council's planning department has approved an advertising consent application for a building on the corner of Fawcett Street and High Street West.
The site sits in the shadow of the iconic Mackie's Corner and was previously occupied by gaming lounge and arcade Harry's Game Shack, however, back in summer 2024, the business announced its decision to close.
Signage linked to the business has since been removed and the building's ground floor appears unused, however, a planning application for signage submitted earlier this year confirmed a new occupier is being lined up.
