Speaking today, Mr Johnsey said he had received messages of support and comments from customers since the crash.
He said: ‘There were quite a few customers that thought we closed during the weekend. We probably had our quietest one of the year.
‘A few people have asked if anyone had any injuries. We’ve had one lady who has had to go to the doctors but we are hoping she will be back soon.’
