Eeek Squeak, it's about time that place was done up! The wife and I went to have a quick shant there once and legged it when we saw the inside!


It's near me too, and definitely on the way home so I might have to give it a go!


Boring fact - I was once going to rent a flat opposite to this pub when I was a young man!

ratty - I would have agreed until recently. It's not that culturally entrenched in the UK but when I was in SF last year, more than once I was the only one without one...


Second thing that made me think again was having work give me a laptop. So I would be waiting for other half in Bar Story, paper finished and thought I would give it a go... don't knock it

OH MY GOD ITS THE F'ING IVANHOE!!!!!!!!!!!!


Excuse my incredulity, but I lived almost opposite for nigh on 20 years and it was always a dump, I went in there precisely twice.


I and anybody who could be bothered listening to me always thought that it was ideal for a thorough make-over that would attract nice, interesting people.


Last thing I had heard was that it was going to be turned into flats.


Strewth.

Nope


I checked out Hoopers tonight with Huguenot.


Nice place. Good ales (Harvey's, Brakspear and guest, porters and Belgians in bottle), it's done the place up with no gastro pretensions, just a lick of paint, a carpet clean and a smile.

Those who lament the passing of real pubs in ED might want to check it out as it's a boozer of the old CAMRA school. The main thing it seems to lack is custom, I hope it manages to fix that as it's not got much else wrong.

    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
