Lockhart Tavern Haywards Heath

[BensGrandad]

I have never been in there but everytimne I go past there seems to be no more than 4 people in there when everywhere else is busy so poses 2 questions (1) Do the majority or in fact many really want a local beer pub (2) How long can it continue with so few customers using it.

Isn't there an ex pub landlord forum for this sort of chat?

Think that must be the one I stumbled into recently on a rare recent visit to Haywards Heath. Potentially nice tho currently annoying place. Two thirds of the available space is giving over to restaurant space consisting mostly of empty tables, while everybody else who just wants to meet up with their mates for an after work drink is crammed into a tiny wee section of the place with not enough tables or seating. Owners REALLY need to re-evaluate their use of space IMHO.

I asked because people on here seem to rave aboutr Dark Star beer

 

[Biffer]

Know them very well. We stock take there and they sell my beer. Saw James C last week and he plus the entire Dark Star board are very comfortable with the strong trade there. I guess you never pass by during peak hours...

Must admit I go past mainly during the day but it was empty last Sunday evening when we went to La Campana. I am surprised that pubs still have stoicktakes and do not rely on comnputerised tills and daily random counts of items. we did this in 1995 with 1 controller in the office using the computer. Whitbreads weree doing it in 1990. Stocktakes in managed houses have now become an old relic of yesterday. Leasses perhaps still need independant advice..

computerised tills are simple. I worked with one of the first in the country in the 80s and even for me it was easy.

[Rod Marsh]

Same here.

Maybe BG's just an Orange Square type of guy.

Walked past a few times and not gone in because it was rammed. Went in last week, very busy and dinner area nowhere near 50% of floor space. Think op fishing

 

[The Brighton Buzz]

In there the other Thursday night and absolutely rammed inside and out.

 

[pishhead]

But then again if you go past on a Sunday evening most places are quiet.

 

[BensGrandad]

As I have said I go past there usually during the day, so perhaps its mainly evening trade and all the other bars do the day time business I do know after eating in La Campana we stopped off at Savannahs never again. 2 Large Hennessy Brandy, nothing special and 2 x Tia Maria with ice for the ladies £33.80 .

You are one of those so called hard up pensioners that can bore for my England.
Please feck off until someone trys to run over you in Haywards Heath.
Buy your brother in law another KEBAB

Its a great little pub, very friendly bar staff, a selection of at least 14-15 different beers as well as a good wine list and the food is well above average as well. Better food and beer selection than anywhere else in HH will give it a good chance and its worth a visit if you like "proper" beer.

I heard that. As soon as all the pubs transitioned to Omsung Phine Landlord 4.1 everything became simple.

I rarely get out for a beer but if I am in haywards Heath it's the only place I would go
