gularscute Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 Does anyone know what's happening to The Red House pub? I heard it was changing hands and undergoing refurbishment. Can anyone reassure me that it's going to keep it's informal music scene and not change into yet another soulless chain pub? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristian Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 I wouldn't have thought that there were many pub chains interested in a pub in that location; does this mean Linda is leaving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaks Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Linda hasn't had the Red House for ages. I go most Friday nights and can assure you that it hasn't closed, it hasn't changed hands and the informal music sessions continue! I'm having a party there at the end of May. This rumor must have started because the pub company put a 'To Let' sign up recently, but Martin has signed up for another five year lease, so the pub's safe for now.

Kristian Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 I really must keep up with the times! Now I think about it, it's at least 2 years since I went in. Does anyone know where Linda went to? I liked her, she was funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meaks Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 I believe Martin still keeps her in the cellar Seriously though I'm not sure. Someone did tell me but I can't remember now. Pretty sure she didn't get another pub though - will try and find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gularscute Posted April 10, 2005 Author Share Posted April 10, 2005 Thanks folks, especially Meaks. I'm reassured. It'd be a tragedy if we lost another gem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ousetunes Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 Superb boozer. I used to enjoy their Ward's and Kirby ales, a bit like an even maltier version of Ward's. Sheffield needs pubs like the Red House (and Fagan's). Good luck whatever's happening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
