💙 A Message from Andrew & Frazer
This is a post we never thought we'd have to write.
After a lot of thought, we've made the difficult decision not to renew our lease, which means The Next Bar's final day of trading will be Wednesday 29th July after our last Bingo night.
Life has taken us in different directions, and we've reached the point where we can no longer give The Next Bar the time and energy it deserves. Rather than doing things by halves, we've decided it's the right time to close this chapter.
To our amazing Next Bar community... thank you.
What we've loved most is creating a place where people could come together. We've been lucky enough to see birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and milestones celebrated, friendships formed, families gather, dogs become regulars, and so many great memories made.
To our amazing team, thank you for your hard work, loyalty and for helping make The Next Bar what it is. We couldn't have asked for a better crew.
We've still got just over two weeks together, and we'd love to see as many of you as we can before we call last drinks.
So come and have one last pizza, one last drink, one last Bingo win, or simply pop in for a chat.
Thank you for your support, your loyalty and for being part of our journey. We hope you'll help us make these final weeks something really special.
Andrew, Frazer & The Next Bar Team ❤️
