Indeed, a battery fire. This report suggests that it started with a battery fire above the shop, but later affected batteries stored in the shop.

Obviously no suggestion the shop did anything unsafe. Above was probably a private flat. Terible luck. I hope they're insured and manage to get back on their feet.
Where did you see mention of the flat above the shop?
As I said, there were lots of deliveroo bikes in there so battery fire isn't that surprising.
