Yates in the town.

[Zimba]

That's a bad conversion, that chain is Stonegate's rock bottom dive bar brand. Some absolutely grim pubs under it. The Borough is part of it for anyone who hasn't been in one.

No idea marra.

Barely any “Yates” left now. The ones still owned by the brand have been rebranded / named

Jeez, how to destroy a proper pub. Sacrilege.

If it stays really shit then that’s a good thing. Keeps all the far right scruffy wrong uns at the same end of town

Just seen it pop up in my news feed. Their photos are of Fosters, Strongbow and Carling pumps. They know their audience, that’s for sure.

Always think its a class building for a pub. Shame its full of down and outs.

Keeps them all in the same area though. Probably a good thing.

Cracking hangover drink back in the day. One of the best cures I’ve encountered.

Happier times.

With the Goldfish Bowl pet shop, Careers place, and newsagents up on the same block on Burdon Road.

It was the air force careers information office. The other forces had their own shops elsewhere.
The Goldfish bowl had a monkey in a cage in the shop. A bit cruel thinking about it now but the kids loved it. It was a vicious little bugger but it shouldn't have been in that cage.

Is it true it’s going cashless?

I've never had a Yates'

So nowts changed except they've stopped doing food.

Aye - the Army career place was next door to the Burton House, and the Navy up the top of Holmside opposite to where Ttonic is now.
