Starquake Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Go against that and many will either drift to The Grindstone or stay at home. Eeek - now you really are scraping the barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallyman Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 sorry to hear people are not happy with how the noahs has opened back up as i am trying diffferent things to see what sort of reaction i get as the week days are so empty then i have to try new things at the weekend its not set in stone yet we shall see how things go Rats, I for one am grateful that you've kept on the forum and that you're clearly interested in the feedback you're getting, so thank you. I suppose it depends what sort of punters you're looking to attract. For those of us, er, slightly older folk, the Noah's has always been a great, proper, local boozer, where we go to meet friends and have a chat. Apart from the great Wednesday quizzes, there wasn't much background noise, so the place was full of banter and conversation. For me, I don't think a quiet pub is a bad place, and I'm fairly sure that a decent proportion of Crookes residents would agree - after all, there are other pubs in Crookes for people who like loud music and that kind of entertainment, but very few places that cater for the 'traditional' pub-goer. In any case, I'm glad you're willing to gauge people's reactions and adjust things accordingly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starquake Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I don't think karaoke would work there anyway - but don't let me stop you from trying it - as soon as I walk into a pub and get a whiff of it I turnaround and go elsewhere, and I know plenty of people feel this way. I actually quite like the Noahs as a pub but living halfway between the Cobden and Princess Royal have only ever used it occasionally - even when it was thriving.

kermit103 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Suppose to keep the Naoh's open we all have to remember it is a buisiness and has to be run like one. The former landlady had very little music on but it still failed, sure everything will settle down in time it is just “suck it and see”. Try what you want Rat’s if it doesn’t work then move on and try something else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try what you want Rat’s if it doesn’t work then move on and try something else The pub started to go down the pan when John Pearson left and many of his regulars were driven away by Andrea who had no experience in the trade and upset many locals. It may be difficult to replicate John's era with smoking bans, drinking trends etc. but he was the benchmark - driven out by greedy breweries.

kermit103 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Yes I remember those days of John but we also have to remember every pub in Crookes is a shadow of its former self as the thread http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=210904 shows. Things are different now and it is a new game. I would like nothing better than the old days back, but allas they are gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
