BEARGER 1,830 Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Been told that Arfield is opening a bar on Copland Road opposite the Louden. Same source as Tillman not signing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malangsob 1,264 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I never have understood the bar business outside of being a silent partner. Selling people glasses full of 'instant asshole' is not appealing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,294 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Good luck to him. I'm not sure the application will be successful due to the flats above the property and God knows what else but if it is, I hope it's a big success. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,010 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Once upon a time pubs were licences to print money. Not any more. One of the richest blokes I ever knew had one of his betting shops next to a pub. He bought the pub. Most lucky winners at the bookie’s went straight next door and gave him his money back. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluedell 5,627 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Do we need another pub there? Is all it's going to do is dilute the Louden clientele and make it less likely for it to survive? The Louden isn't open every day so it must struggle to make ends meet. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

26th of foot 6,082 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 The reaction of Glasgow City Council's Licensing Board will be interesting. Will the Gerry Braiden inspired Ibrox and Cessnock Residents Associations be motivated to raise objections? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
