Suppose it meant to be a little exclusive. Generally avoid town now on Christmas and new year eve, too much effort. Bet there will be a great atmosphere in the Dove though. goldenfleece 31-12-2006, 04:14 PM Nonnas on Ecclesall Road are charging £50 a ticket with a free bar.

Expect to be charged £30 for some places on West Street and Div street tonight, else you wont get in!! Cant remember which bars it is, my door security agency told me, but forgotten........ Munch 31-12-2006, 04:29 PM Just had a look at the Dove and Rainbow website with the pic's since the re-furb...Like what you have done to it - looks cleaner etc but still a rockers pub :thumbsup: Looking forward to checking it out soon, although I think I'll be at the Washington tonight :) bkcin 01-01-2007, 05:10 AM Its an excellent pub. I recommend it to anyone who likes decent rock music. Was in today from about 4pm until 2am ish. Super! chriswvtr 01-01-2007, 01:08 PM FIFTY QUID!!!!! Its outrageous!!! Exclusive?

No place would charge that unless it was a free bar, it would be commercial suicide, stop trying to influence people into going into your bar by spreading lies. |
