Young people are smoking and drinking less and not going to pubs . More older pub people have transitioned to home socialising since Covid. The price of a pint is prohibitive for many yes but it is by no means the first reason for the demise of pubs. Praying the internet disappears and we all go back to discussing down the local instead...1

Big reopening today, Razor Ruddock cutting the ribbon at 12!Elthamaddick said:The Camden in Bexleyheath has has a decent refurb - can't have been cheap
Must be doing well (the pub, not Ruddock) as post-covid a lot of places are struggling, and as you say the refurb won't have been cheap.1 -

I've been a regular pub goer for the last forty years and have never been glassed once. Maybe I go to a better class of Spoons to you.4

Oh really……that’s very very surprising, I thought it was doing well and has been the most well attended pub in Lee ever since it opened.HastingsRed said:See that the spoons is closing at Lee Green.

Different clientele in both. Northbrook is pricey and Tigers is students and culturally diverse. The spoons was neither.SoundAsa£ said:

Been on the cards for years as the Leegate centre is slated for redevelopment: https://853.london/2022/06/17/leegate-redevelopment-plans-for-15-storey-tower-and-563-homes-go-to-council/SoundAsa£ said:

Had long expected Wetherspoon to pick up the New Tiger's Head but that's a shop now. Lee Green probably doesn't fit in with what Spoons does now, which is big town centre locations.1 -

Yes, I don’t think it will increase The Lord Northbrook clientele
that much but I reckon The Old Tigers Head will see a fair increase.
Not forgetting Duke of Edinburgh of course.0 -
