Three fire crews were called to Sanders Garden World in Brent Knoll this afternoon (Friday) after a kitchen blaze.
One fire engine from Burnham-On-Sea and two from Weston were sent to the garden centre at 12.47pm.
“Crews located a small fire within a deep fat fryer in the kitchen,” a fire spokesman told Burnham-On-Sea.com.
“The fire had already been extinguished by the occupiers using a fire blanket, but the crews also used two CO2 extinguishers and two breathing apparatus.”
Fire crews said that alarms at the centre were fitted and did operate correctly.
A spokeswoman for the centre told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “We are unable to comment about the fire until after our investigation.”
