philyyy Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 a pub with bugger all else to do but sup,no tv no juke box,no live music after over ten years its getting boring my local is empty on Saturday nights. Not sure if there are two sentences here. Is this proper pub boring or your local with TVs etc boring? Some pubs in this city are getting things very right for their market i.e. they are packed and others I go in I just despair and wonder why they don;t see why it is empty.

Yorkyhells Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 A proper pub does`nt have music, pool tables, t.v.`s and kids in, it just sells real ale to people who want to have a drink, sit down and put the world to right. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldenfleece Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 A very different city centre experience, been going there on and off since the early 80's....had its share of problems but a cheap and cheerful pint of Sam Smiths best bitter was always very pleasant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Why just real ale? I'm with you on the sitting down bit though, far more conducive to talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audilad Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 When I said real ale I meant what we used to drink not people buying half and stood with one finger in their ear and discussing said half for 2 hours Going out for a drink means a proper drink not 2 halves and a packet of rosemary flavoured nibbles Oh how marvellous and totally awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've drank Sam Smith's beer so know of what I speak. Have you tried Lervig 3 Bean Stout? Or Brewdog Tokyo? You might like it. Going out for a drink means whatever you want it to mean. Each to their own innit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
