South Sea - Broomhill.


Recommended Posts

Yep, they got the development plans approved by the council nearly two years ago. The building design drawings look fairly pleasant, it should slot into the area quite well:

In fairness other than a segment of the student population I doubt many of the local community have visited the South Sea for many years.

 

I have little doubt that the last tenants dedicated a lot of their time and effort into making it work but its not easy particularly with so much competition and cheap drinks on offer locally.

 

I suspect the place would have needed some serious investment at some point in the near future without which closure was only a matter of time.

Seems to be opening up as a bar/restaurant. Notice about licensing on the door dated Nov says something like application by 'Blues Bar Ltd' and has been painted. I could also see builders doing work in the upstairs bit. Maybe it'll re-open for xmas.

 

Good luck to them.

Which Xmas? 2016 seems ambitious by the state of it!

Good news this if it comes off. There's already a Morrisons Sainsbury's and Tesco in broomhill so the last thing it needed was a spar or something to add to the contingent.

 

Hopefully they can make a success of it as the south sea was very up and down and mainly down in my lifetime. Sounds like a different concept altogether though so best of luck to them.
