Chappylad Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 The Royal Oak was shut at the weekend, rumour is that it is in trouble for non payment of bills. What with the Wagon not looking like it will open again this is bad news for Chapeltown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tradescanthia Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Less pubs+ less crappy fastfood outlets = less loonies causing mayhem at night. Asda/Walmart wiped out all the shops even opening a Pharmacy across the road from a long established one. It also has an opticians dept as well. All Asda needs now is a tattoo parlour, a hairdressers and a massage parlour. Maybe now all the loonies will go to town at night...............and join the rest.

bullerboY Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 No,the answer is kick the loonies out so the decent folk can go back in and feel safe.A pub near me was like going into a wild west saloon until it got a landlord who knew the ropes he employed very large doormen and anyone under 25 is kicked out at 7 pm now there is never any trouble the place is full from Thursday onwards with a varying age group and the meals are very good and the doormen are pleasant. If anyone is caught with drugs he bans them for life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kermit103 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 It is true The Royal Oak was closed because of it's owners ( Not Enterprise this time ) bleeding it dry, paid no bills and used the money it made over Christmas to fund their last running pub. They didn't give a crap about staff and customers and hopefully it will come round and bite them in the arse. RIP The Royal Oak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
