Agree in part but what we need is a proper London boozer,no slots,no space invaders no music,no kids.
Forget gastro pubs,thats just a euphemism for norovirus contamination.Good old Shepherds pie,Bangers and Mash,Cauliflower cheese,Liver and Bacon,Jacket potatoes and tea and wads thats what a working woman or man needs and to eat and drink in peace and quiet.Enjoy the odd games of Arrows and shove hapenny,bring back Public/Saloon and Snugs Bars............. are those were the days.
Sad to see the Planners allowing the demolition of a fine building after "suspicious" fires were lit just after developers bought the property.
Suspicious also how squatters appeared to live there for a long time even though the developer's had the right to move them very quickly.
I wonder what made the Council backtrack from their tough stance on the loss of a social amenity?
I always thought that pub had great potential to be made into a really good gastro bar /restaurant.
