theres another one around the same area called "the codfather", and i once came across a chippy situated across the road from a church called "plaice be to cod", its since been turned into a kebab house,the chippy that is.

On East Dulwich Road there's The Codfather chippy of course.

Slightly disappointed they don't have a slogan that refers to sleeping

with the fishes though.

There's a whole page devoted to the likes of this here: http://www.bestweekever.tv/2008/06/06/the-50-best-pun-stores/

With acknowledgements to http://www.b3ta.com which is highly puerile but often very very funny!

There is - or was - a tiny chain of Delis in Brighton & Hove called "Bona Foodie": equally priceless if you remember "Round the Horne"

And there's the superior chippy in Covent Garden called "The Rock & Sole Plaice"....

And years ago the shoe shop on the King's Road called "R.Soles"

Rather like the Fawcett Inn in Portsmouth / Southsea

Near work there is Cynthias Bar - not an odd name, although the 7 foot robot on entry mixing drinks is

Talking of "Round The Horne", an old friend of mine used to have a hair salon called Bona Riah.

[CamberwellOz]

I still like the pub called Dirty South in Lewisham.

Makes me smile every time I go past it.

There's an Indian Restaurant in Leith, Edinburgh called The Raj. Very apt with the Trainspotting culture of the area. i.e Leith, full o pure bampots ya radge!
