boldforester   10 #1 Posted December 8, 2014 Just walked past Legends and it looks very, very closed. As in, no longer functioning (?) I'm sure it was open last night. Any information? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bilge   34 #2 Posted December 8, 2014 It'd be nice if it turned into something useful. Legends is/was awful. It would make a nice micropub. Can't see it happening though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
boldforester   10 #3 Posted December 8, 2014 It'd be nice if it turned into something useful. Legends is/was awful. It would make a nice micropub. Can't see it happening though.  Remember those corner cafes serving coffee in Pyrex cups & saucers; and scones or fancies? It should become one of those, to take the time-wasting coffee brigade outta the Rawson. I'm fed up of queuing for ages behind some blue-rinser asking for "larh-te" when all I want is a pint (it's a pub) and I can at least pronounce the drink correctly.

mogwai84 Â Â 10 #5 Posted December 8, 2014 It was being painted today. Â I'd love a decent pub to replace it, but doubt that's going to happen.

top4718 Â Â 838 #6 Posted December 8, 2014 I know the owner has been getting costs to do a budget refurb so that probably why, do it now and get it open before Christmas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

mogwai84 Â Â 10 #12 Posted December 11, 2014 I thought all the Thornbridge pubs weren't making any profit? Â I doubt there are many pubs turning a profit. Â I don't know much about Thornbridge, but I'd be surprised if The Greystones and The Bath Hotel weren't financially secure, at the very least.
