JohnK Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 They’ve had a couple of private events already. A lot of work has been done on the inside. Everyone local who’s said anything to me says its opening. I was told there’s a dispute over material to be used on the outside hence the outside not being done yet but I don’t know if that’s true.

ExMemberBobdog Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Outside still looked really tatty today, but somebody told me there’s a thriving delivery service of pizzas and burgers etc operating from the kitchens for several months; people phone and order and they deliver. Also heard the story of at least one private event there recently, and that the target is to open for Easter. Hopefully the tatty outside will not put visitors off.

Oddfellow Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 As a local, but perhaps without his ear to the ground, I know nothing of any food service from the Broadshaven, but I am aware that the place has been occupied in some way for some months. Be good to get it open again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard that from a friend who has taken advantage of the delivery service, and recommends the pizzas. I live outside the delivery range so cannot personally verify. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to them but it has to look inviting. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broads01 Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Roof terrace bar could be nice if it comes off. I can imagine a good view along the river in both directions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
