Bilge Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Went past earlier and the outside looks great - massive improvement- hopefully the inside will be the same. I agree it does look better from the outside. That 'grey undercoat' look has become a cliche but it does often mean things inside have improved.

taxman Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Who is going to be running it, anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belperite Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Bermondsey Pub Company (i.e. Enterprise Inns managed). In terms of the actual person, don't know. They have confirmed that the policy of the last 30-odd years of people being able to bring their own food has been scrapped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have confirmed that the policy of the last 30-odd years of people being able to bring their own food has been scrapped That policy wasn't 30 years old. More like 10. It's also a good thing that the policy has been canned in my mind. I never really enjoyed having a pint with 4 students all sat round a stinking pizza with a glass of coke between all of them................

I remember them bringing it in when the landlord John left which was probably 10 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember them bringing it in when the landlord John left which was probably 10 years ago. I remember it from when I first came to Sheff as a student in '97. Anyway, the locals who went in didn't seem to mind the students and their "stinking" pizzas. Passed by there last night, it's looking very smart outside and in. The manager came out and spoke to me, she said they're getting various Thornbridge keg beers in, in addition to having 5 casks (there was a couple of Kelham Island and one D**m B*r on so far).

Was John a stocky bearded chap? If so, he was the licensee in 1991 and was in charge of the policy. The pub was run by Sheffield University Student Union as a managed house under lease from Inntrepreneur. The bring your own food policy was encouraged.

Altogether now.."We Want Plates!" Sounds like they saw M&B pubs "Chip Tanks" and thought great! - so you cannot see just how little you get!
