That's good news!


Let's hope it's all less shambolic than last time :)


At least we're not being bombarded with a load of promises about celebrity chefs, VIP openings, vegetables being grown in high tech equipment imported from the States on the roof etc, so no high expectations to be unfulfilled :)


Looking forward to trying it. Another drinking option near my house is always welcome :)

Work?? in progress this lunchtime...


Front bar ceiling part painted redish purple colour.


Outside window frames 'white washed' sparsely up to height of arms length ( assume no ladder available)


Couple of bods scratching around outside. Bloke on mobile inside..


That's it.


Don't look like the sort of work that a chain would be taking on..


Don't expect an major change to the place.. Don't think anyone is willing to take the risk

of spending any money on the place.

People can't be in the Pub and the Cinema at the same time.


Also with people taking their kids out to the Cinema the pub may not be the best option..


Plus I was under the impression the Cinema was going to have its own Caf? / Bar.


The two will not have that great effect on each other. With all the other options available nearby.

Running two successful pubs already bodes very well, I feel :)


Looking forward to trying it!


ETA: The menu at The Easton looks a bit boring though :(

    • Agree with @Sue the Dog is awful-nice building awful food. We like The Rossendale and Watsons
    • There are so many variables. Good chefs can having bad nights, post-Brexit staff shortages, your dish might be brilliant, your friend might order something that's inedible. In the end I think the best option is just to go to the restaurant which has the best overall reviews. If all the reviews are bad then avoid, but even if all the reviews are good that's not a cast iron gaurantee. 
    • The trouble is that pub management and chefs are constantly changing, so what might be fantastic on one occasion  becomes terrible a short time later, and vice versa. Two of the worst pub lunches I've had locally were at the Dog in the village and the Plough, but both those were some time ago. We had an absolutely appalling Christmas lunch on Christmas Day at The Cherry Tree, which was also exorbitantly expensive, so unless their chef (I use the term loosely) has changed, I wouldn't advise eating there. The menu looked amazing. We thought we would treat ourselves. Never again 😭
    • If you've seen the original longer post then you'll know that you've taken that out of context. I don't charge but didn't feel I even needed to say that – you've made it sound like I do charge and that's why I deleted this part of the post saying I don't charge. When I read back what I'd written it sounded like I was defending myself against criticisms that hadn't even been made so i cut it out. And now you've made that kind of criticism anyway I should've left it in.  What do you mean "not charging people to read your reviews of their local restaurants."?  You make it sound like i'm sneaking into SE22 from somewhere else. I live here - they are reviews of my local restaurants!
