Oh bugger No!! The first one will be a success and the world will
want to copy the formula...it will be cup cake shops all over again
and the people who were brave enough to do it first here will lose out.

Good luck!! to the bravehearts in Gnosall

It's a cracking little place.
It has a proper pub feel about it. No blaring music, gamblers, pool table. Just happy folk stood chatting. I'd be more than happy to pop in on my own without feeling uncomfortable.

The world already has them....well they do in the Caribbean.

They are called rum shops. They are not shops exactly but little shacks where you can sit and have a rum or a beer, chat with the locals and watch the world go by.

Fabulous little places they are.

And a beer kiosk in Letna Park in Prague.

Probably cost as much to build as all our alcohol prohibition signs did..

The Whippet in Lichfield is superb. All it sells is real ale and cider. No lager rubbish. The formula is simple, small premises so low overheads, no being tied to a pubco or brewery, no walls full of tellies and fruit machines. Good luck to them.

I like your post but I do have to pull you up on the' lager rubbish'. There are a number of decent lagers coming out of micro breweries these days. They're not all akin to the remnants of a two week unemptied chamber pot. Our very own Freedom do great lagers, Brooklyn lager is lovely, Camden Pils is great too, and there's hundreds more. I'm more of an AIPA myself, but I would be more than happy to do battle with the ones I've listed and others.

I can't wait for this place to open. I've been to a couple in Derby and another one, where it was escapes me at the moment, but they're great places as you say. No gimmicks, just quality drink and your very own made atmosphere.

I seem to recall suggesting something like this ( micro bar ) not long after being committed to the Forum in 2009

Although I can't find it so it may have been another weird dream:lorks:
