Grannie Annies

Place has obviously been re-fitted by the same designer who did Poetic License and Beggars Bridge. Sea views are what Fat Buddha should have had but failed miserably to achieve. Seat/table to space ratio about right, although in good weather the place will be rammed. Upstairs views very good. Toilets...hmm. 4 kegs cut to make urinals - really? and that 'hand basin' needs to have the flow valve turned down a bit or the dickheads will soon be flooding the place from upstairs 'for a laugh'.

Anyway, serving wenches - very pleasant and friendly, decent selection of beers. Prices steep - hopefully keep the scratters and Sandies out. Brooklyn lager canny, Shed Head (?) better. Get the tvs sorted and replace the laptop based disco with something better and it could be a winner. definitely going on the seafront stroll stopping off point list.
The flow valve of the locals will be weak even after boozing so the urinals should be okay.
 


I'd have thought it would based on wether or not a reasonable person would confuse the two businesses. In this case they probably have a point, even though they're solely operating in NI.

Still part of the UK though, so nothing to stop them from opening up on the mainland.

Looks like the gadgie (Mr Ski?) has fucked up here, as was pointed out earlier on here.
 
Just call it Nana Anne's. Annie will have to change what she's affectionately known as to match but they can at least have an equally shit name.

Or they could come up with a decent name. Like The Smugglers?

Grannie Annie's as opposed to Granny Annie's?

Different spellings so thought that would be acceptable?
Do you think McDonald's would allow another fast food place called MacDonald's to open?
