Has the decline in traditional pubs had a bigger impact in communities breaking down? Remember going as a kid and seeing most of my neighbours in the local pub.

My old local in the Bolton News tonight and it says how good it is to change it into flats. What a load of bullshit, it still aches my heart

The new name is shite as well. Jayden house?

I wonder if the owner is called Jason Dennis, or they're lovers. I'm not bitter, honest

My old haunt is now a pile of rubble and they are building houses on it. My other pub connection has been bought by SJM so fingers crossed it stays open for a long tome yet!

Has the greenwood got a new motive planned yet? Looks a very sad state of affairs driving past yesterday?

The ale house where I was weaned is now a nursery

Fucking Latino Lounge, what the fuck is all that about? A "Latin" restaurant on a busy junction with hardly any parking. Sad day.

Crofters was always full of wankers, no loss.

 

No Name is full of inbred Harwooders. Hopefully that's next.

The Royal Oak was more people from TM and Hall I'th Wood who didn't frequent the Starkie or Castle.

 

Deepest Harwood is full of "you're not from round here" nobheads.

i lived in ainsworth and trust me, that was far worse

 

if you didn't live in 'the triangle' you were shit on someones shoes

 

i never did find out what the triangle was but i guess its whoever has stopped the build on that house thats been sheeted up 2 years or more

Greenwood was always shit, sad to see the Queens will never be the pub it once was but the borough of H does alright for supping establishments.

I believe there's a charity day in September where all the pubs are doing something for Derian House.

Locals only or can outsiders and immigrants attend too?

Loads of pubs bit the dust over this way,but every single one was as shit hole that nobody went in.

 

I know it's not relevant as its a food pub,but they opened a hungry horse pub called the iron horse just down the road in Thornton the other week.

 

It took just over £54,000 last week.

 

That is an inredible turn over for a pub that size. JSL

£54k sounds decent. It's a fair comment about shit boozers disappearing.

 

I suppose the healthy living drive has to be factored in as well. I just think you wont see the pub culture of the past as mainstream, regardless of what ever happens.

Decent enough food for pub grub, big portions and priced correctly.

 

They have it right, do Greene King.

It's the costs of running the things that's killing them IMO

 

A handful off daytime pisscans early doors stylee and a flurry of tradesman at tea time aren't enough to pay the bills anymore.

 

Sad really but good proper busy pubs only really exist in town centres now where they can be filled with piss pots all day.

 

A massive factor is young folk off into town on Thursday,Friday and Saturday night aren't starting in pubs anymore as the prices in the pubs aren't that dissimilar to prices in town. It's easier and cheaper to get 3 boxes of ale for £20 from Morrisons and get smashed at home before you go out.

 

Pubs need to evolve to survive. Those that don't die.

A huge Street party.  Well, they're closing the roads which will make the crawl safer, but I think there may be more to it, like DJ's and outside bars.  Could actually be quite good if organised right.
