Lordship pub

What a sad excuse for a local bar. The so called manager is unbelievably immature , when asked about the lack of a full glass he became aggressive and confrontational regarding the glass measures. I suggest this a poor way of running a bar and will show through again in the quick turnover of this venue. I imagine we will see it trading under a different name again soon. There are a lot better venues in the area.

Been there loads, found staff chatty & friendly, had a nice dinner on xmas eve, and when my dad came down to visit this weekend took him there for lunch, which he thoroughly enjoyed..Also one of my friends had a fab Birthday lunch there in the "booth" at the back. One of the things I like about it is how helpful & friendly the staff are, so find this post a bit odd.

I have had an awful experience of this premises and posted a truthful version of my experience. It's not the first time I have frequented this public house either. But have never had such a dismal encounter with someone behind a bar that I have been motivated to share.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
