Forums Forums Wirral Information Wirral info Rose and Crown Poulton, closed??

Anyone have any info about this?

Pub has been going downhill for a while and now seems to have shut for the week?? A thread on here says due to an elec fault, but more probs an unpaid elec bill? Times must be hard if landlord can't pay his electricity.

Allegedly opening today under new management

So is the old landlord gone? Hmmm, why is new management coming in if there's just supposedly been a prob with electrics?

Does it matter?

The place is opening back up.

Yeah it does matter, you get to know the management of your local, obviously it's of interest if the management suddenly changes.

I couldn't give a toss as long as I could get bladdered.

Each to their own. Good luck on finding out anyway.

Thanks for this mate. Look forward to going there some nights.

Still not open Notice in the window (must have been put up last Monday) saying "Due to an electrical fault we won't be able to trade today. Sorry for any inconveince (sic)".

If it doesn't open again soon then it probably never will.

Another one going?

I hope it doesn't close! The live music is usually quite good, used to be a good night before it started to go down.
It doesnt sound like a fault - theyve lost a weeks businesd, surely you'd be able to get most elec faults fixed without having to sacrifice a weeks business??
I think its either cash flow or theyve been shut down by someone.

Hope another pub doesnt go! Is the little nellie. definitely closed now? What's everyone's favourite wallasey pub?

The only electrical fault they had was a large unpaid bill! Allegedly....

Yes the Little Nellie has definitely gone now. Can't see that re-opening as a pub, the whole building needs masses of work.

Hmm I hope the rose does reopen, need new management though, this landlord has ran the place into the ground! Need someone who knows what theyre doing, seems so hard to keep a pub open these days, the regulars deserve someone who will. keep the place open. And the poor staff! I wonder whats happened to them?

Don't think it was just the landlord, if people aren't going out and spending money in pubs and the breweries are demanding so much, it'd be difficult for anyone to run one successfully.

The Rose & Crown staff are brilliant, all lovely and chatty. Hopefully if it does re-open they'll all still have their jobs.

Apparently police where all over it this morning and it was being boarded up? Apparently landlord has done a runner.

Also yes staff always were great, hope they are kept on if/when it re opens

this is sad news,and yes the staff were great.
