Wending our way down towards EDT last night to meet some of the forum regulars we passed G&B on the way and decided to stop for one in the new bar...

I had been to the old bar a number of times but always a gamble that you might be the only people there, however last night we could see plenty of people already there and it looked like a great atmosphere


Long story short, we never got to EDT. Stayed in G&B all night and had a terrific time. Great atmosphere, plenty of staff to cope with a fairly busy night and all in good form. And the Pieminster pies went down a treat as well.


But I still wish I got to meet forumites - ah well, always Wednesday next week

Seconded. I went to G&B on Friday night and it was great. Very good wines on offer, you can actually buy them from the shop and take them through and drink them in the bar. Also you can BYOF (Bring your own food) and pay ?3 "chippage" for plates and cutlery etc while you drink their wine. Good thinking 99!


5 Stars from me - a drastic improvement. See you Wednesday for those going.

I also went on Saturday evening, we very later afternoon, and again the set-up is much better, simple bar layout.....I asked for a recommendation and explained my favs, and i got to taste a bit before ordering my glass, then enjoyed it so much bought a bottle as well (which was added to my bar tab and wrapped and bagged, chilled) and wondered off home to enjoy it. Always liked G&B, but now the deli is appearing too and the space is much bigger....big plus....in the summer when they open the boors in the bar, it will become even more appealing.

We went on Friday night and agree with all the above... the changes to layout have been a great success.


If you have even a minor interest in wine, you will appeciate how lucky we are to have this place so close to home. To be able to browse the shelves then take a bottle to the bar to drink is fantastic. The staff are very knowledgable and accomodating... I saw some people raising an eyebrow that there was no beer available on tap, but isn't that kind of like going to a Chinese and ordering chicken & chips?

Yes I know that, and maybe the people that enjoy wine, but who's partners don't, would go in there and spend their money, if their partners were catered for...


If they do bottled beer though, that would seem to solve the problem.


I've not been there, so I'm not judging, just making a point. I personally enjoy both beer and wine, depending on the occasion, but wine for me is more a thing to open at home with a nice meal, or just nice company, wine bar is not really my thing, but all power to them, and I'm glad to hear they're doing well, and pleasing the punters.

Could someone do me a favour tomorrow at the wine tasting please? 'Tis the boyf's birthday on Saturday and I'm running out of ideas for pressies. If you taste something delectable (must be red), on the heavy, rich, fruity blah de blah side and costing around ?20-25 that is particularly yum, please could you make a note of the name and then post it? Thanks in advance and have a good time!

This one has had me chuckling for days


Africa needs citing as being southeast of asia apparently, presumably by another 8 year old and kangaroos floated to Oz on mats!!

    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face. 
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....
