What if....
What if you bought a pub for a knock down price but you really wanted one closer to centre of things in terms of passing trade
What if you then managed to buy that pub at a later date
You have a spare pub
Business is business
But the town centre is just across the road at Riverside side now don't you know?
It is
But that corner to the Shrew isn't turned - it's not en route to the promised land
Whereas the Bird is on the route to and from the station, is the closest bar to the station (ish) is near to the courts and college and car parks

What if you owned two pubs and realised customers come back if you show them some attention and interest?
There is a marked difference between the customer service you get in the Bird compared with the Shrew. Whilst I don't want to see Paula and Rob fail I feel the staff in the Shrew could have done more to retain customers.

I haven't been in the Shrewsbury Arms since the Bird in Hand opened.
I like the pub, however I wasn't very impressed with the service and it lacked atmosphere.
Both spot-on.What if you owned two pubs and realised customers come back if you show them some attention and interest?

The Guinness did?I attended the Shrew tonight, for the first time since about 1990.
It seemed generally OK - though, I would not recommend the Guinness.
It seemed a lot bigger than I remember.
Fortunately, or unfortunately, no - I meant the premises.The Guinness did?
Bec from the bird is currently in as a temporary manager while the brewery look for a more permanent replacement.
