    It appears another pub in the city has closed its doors. The Front Lounge has not not opened since close of business on Sunday Night. (11.05.2014)

    As far as I know it's been let. Not sure when it's reopening but it will be more food inclined when it does.

    Yeah the prospective tenants pulled out of that deal last month. It looks like it needs a lot of repair and will become an eyesore if nothing done to it.

    As per forum charter, no speculation on any businesses until confirmed by media source or other credible source.

    EDIT: Told by a reputable source that all businesses are closed.

    I was gonna say I'll miss The Showboat being my stop-off for a pint before heading to The Forum, but I have no reason to go to The Forum anymore either. :(

    Depends on what you want out of it.

    Pub pints = Phil Grimes and Geoffs if its a decent size crowd.
    Pub/Club = Shortts or Revolution
    Club = Crystal or The Foundry

    All within 60 seconds of each other

    I see a new club starting in Revolution, Saturday 13 Sep called Crash. Looks like a follow up to Traffic from the Forum.
