Cyclone Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) Isn't this already a done deal? The landlord has accepted it and the plans are in place for a few final bands and then it closes for refurbishment into a chain pub serving food that has to compete with a massive weatherspoons right next door to it serving food cheaper and faster? Ah, right, situation has changed. Post as of 16hrs ago on facebook. Quote Wow. Just Wow! We've had the Managing Director of Punch in the pub tonight for an impromptu meeting, & it turns out he's an ex-Sheffield lad who knows the pub from years back. Along with our Area Manager, Ian, we've all agreed to keep talking & try to find a solution that suits everyone - Punch, me & Keith, & you, our lovely customers! They've withdrawn our “notice to leave”, which means we'll be able to do Tramlines, & beyond that, we'll try to find a way forwards together....

kaaalie Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I'm worried that, after surviving last year, the Dove might succumb to coronavirus. A bar that was having issues during normal times can't be being helped by this period. Hopefully not as there's hardly any alternative venues left in town now.

Andy C Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Well, during lockdown all pubs have to be closed so its survival through that period relies on government support and hopefully the pub company that owns it (Heineken Star Pubs and Bars who now owns Punch Taverns) being understanding regarding rent etc. However what you can do right now to support the Dove is to buy one of their vouchers valid to spend at the bar when it reopens, you get them from savepublife.com (this is a Budweiser initiative but you aren't required to drink their beer!) Once it reopens after all this blows over ultimately you all need to go there and spend money, enjoy the drinks, games and nibbles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
