Psalter Tavern - Closed

[Colin Foster]

Bit of an overreaction but each to their own.

 

Not really, I've had it happen to me a few times and done the same.

Now open again as The Psalter. Seems to be getting decent reviews as a hotel, but has anyone here been in? Is the bar decent?

OK have been in mesen tonight. Pub-wise, just the hotel bar is open at the mo on the right hand side of the building which serves the usual hotel bar type drinks - mainstream lagers, wines etc. However, spoke to the owner / manager and he said that the central part of the building will be opening again in a few weeks too as a pub, serving cask, and the word craft was mentioned. Will pop back and report. Anyway, its good that the it'll be opening again as a pub and not converted to purely residential use.

It looks like it has closed again recently:

I've seen and heard stories that it was always very expensive in there 😞

The beer on offer wasn't that great either tbh. Too much competition from other great pubs within 10/15 mins walk such as Itchy Pig, Dark Horse,  The Beer House, Ale Club, The Union etc.

There’s scaffolding around the outside of it at the moment. When I went past, earlier this morning, there was a man doing a bit of titivating to the outside.

 

I imagine that someone else will be opening it soon enough. Let’s see if it can get through the summer.

Titivating ? I heard it may become an upmarket foodie restaurant and hotel !

 

If they cannot get a buyer, I guess it might well go the way of other pubs, and a block of flats be built where it stands, that's assuming that they can get planning permission beside the busy Psalter Lane 😮
