It could be there is a big conspiracy against shoe repair kiosks or it could be that the business is increasing tough, the units in the Oaks are the wrong size and the rents would be too high. Who knows?
When the Oaks shoe repair place closed I started going to Elias in Chiswick. Now that has gone to but apparently the kiosk in front of the Sainsbury's in Chiswick is good.
As for other kiosk type services such as key-cutting, a number of stores in the area offer them including the one about 100 yards up from the level crossing on Churchfield Road. |
