It has had more names than that in just the few years I've been here, it seems jinxed... It was Nostalgia Bar a fifties themed bar just before it was Euphoria I think. I've only liked one of the incarnations in recent years, when it had the hexagonal...

Saturday is the rumoured day of reopening, has anyone any idea if anything is really happening? I went past there on Tuesday, lights were on so someone had been inside, but it wasn't clear if anything had changed. It didn't really look closed down at...

Sandbanks Restaurant, The Pavilion, Wear Bay Road - Sat 23rd Aug

I haven't written one of these reviews for a while and, to be honest, I wondered whether I ever would again. There are only so many times you can be bothered to write something about crap food served by people who don't give a damn about good food o...

Has the Red Lion recently reopened?

I just heard today that the Red Lion has been closed for the past three months, and is all spanking new after a major refit and cleanup. I've been avoiding that place for a long time, obviously long enough not to notice it'd be out of action for that...
