nick2 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 It was opened about 5 months before the Albert was demolished if my brain cogs serve me right. Is that all, I thought it was much longer, you might be right though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKSentinel Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I worked at the Norfolk when it first opened as a Gay Bar. Must say though, it's been better since Gary and Simon bought it. I love Xes, it's just a bit out of the way for me to get to. Now if they had a bus........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpiderPete Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Where exactly was this legendary Albert anyway? You never went dear :o It was near the Norfolk Bridge, I think that was what it was called, it is now a cafe, and near the big car repair place. If you walk up that road and cross over and keep going, you will come to Xes. I used to pop in there at lunchtime for a sandwich and half a pint. IMO - (hope I havent opened a can of worms ere) it was THE best gay pub we ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
