In the early mid 90s The Tavern was always considered a good Saturday night out but a pain to get to from Horwich so as 17 year olds you had to hope someone would drive 

Part of the appeal was 50p a pint of hoffmeistar

Must be older than me . It was £1.05 in the Student Union , but that was down south tho . 

We tried Bianca lounge on Saturday after match, not impressed! Overpriced, slow service, no atmosphere.. is it a bar trying to be a restaurant or a restaurant that wants to be a pub? 🤷‍♂️
 

Back to Bank Top Ale House in future 🍻

Presume it just can't survive on 20 or so busy days a season and not much doing in the summer. Fanzone and emergence of gaffs on precinct won't help either.

Was ace as Jeffersons/Scott's when it was the only show in town.

There was a spell where it was pretty busy on a Thursday and Friday night when it was I think Masouri though that was over ten years ago

And it was shortlived 

Missoula?

Went in after Tuesday. Nobody behind the bar, some young lass walking around filling the salt cellars. Assumed she was too young to serve ale.

10 fucking minutes later she deigned to go behind the bar and start serving ale. Pissed me off more than the game.
