the grill

LKLad

Mint Sauce

Where your source???

The Grill hasn't been raking in the crowds like they used to. It started getting less popular about 2 years ago I say. Especially when Voodoo came in. They spent so much money into doing it up though...

heard it last night in the place from the staff

game over it seems

sad day

Tis a sad day. IMO they are **** at advertising.

I have actually emailed them and told them to post their listings on different forums and to set up a proper website and a bebo/facebook/myspace page but never received anything back from them.

The Grill is a proper club. It's isolated (well standing on its own), has plenty car parking, in a prime location and it's absolutely gorgeous. They need to promote their club more.

Yeah am afraid its true.. Lastnight was supposed to be the last night ever...
Heard it going to be sold at public auction..
Pity have some great memories of the Grill and of Bellas in particular:(

Not that long ago the grill almost had a license to print money, then the management changed and the final nail in the coffin was the casino, you don't open a casino unless you know how to run one, and the grill did not. It was an expensive lesson to say the least.

If its up for auction (or will be) then you could probably still see its use continued although I would think its unlikely. Commercial/retail development would be the big earner.

I can't believe the Grill is gonna go without a big party!

Gone into Liquidation or receivership, not sure which. Senna is right about the casino though the general opinion was also that the rennovations were a disappointment. Except for Sundays the othernights were struggling and they recently had stopped Fridays too

Its a sad day as many of us had our first nights out there but I suppose thats the way it goes.

When they took the fountain out of the millionaire club it was all downhill from there on in.

been lucky enough to visit a lot of nite clubs but the grill had something special, particularly in the late 90s with Bellas and Millionares.....great memories with great friends.....what the fiesta was once became the grill and what the grill was has now become voodoo and so things go on.......
