sports bar with multiple screens ( hopefully a couple outside )

Shocker. Pub next to queue of 200000 people is busy.

Doesn't mean it's not dated.

I am not sure about gutting it entirely but new furniture, paint, carpet and a wider range of beers and the place would be onto a winner. Sadly they've neglected it a bit and clearly aren't pulling in the money the pubco thinks it could make.

So every pub refurb is always a winner eh? None ever fail and end up being sold for new housing?

Sadly I fear it's a done deal.

Basically, the owners wouldn't get permission to turn a valuable community asset into flats right now, so they will turn it into something no-one wants.

Then six months later, and the place is always empty, they'll say no-one wants it as a pub any more, and sell it as a residential property, getting more money that way than they would selling it as a pub.

It's how Enterprise Inns (who are property developers before they are pub owners) operate.

Haven't been in there for a while but it's always been one of my favourite Brighton boozers.

In a nutshell, and some right donuts earlier on this thread that can’t see this tried and trusted routine. It’s all about greed. Why be happy with a million when you can make £1.01m instead. And **** the community, tradition and lives it effects. Come pray at the temple of capitalist greed. Where everything is calculated and measurable. Depressing.

Seven pages and nobody said they had singed.

There you are BG, I was told you were on your annual pilgrimage west. I think you can guess who by!

No, the Druids do that on 21st of June.
