Like I said on the other thread it was never as good with new owner.
It was up to pub/restaurant standard at that time, wouldn’‘t say cheap, but I’'d rather pay a bit more for decent quality meat and well cooked food, than pay cheaper for crap.
I can say I never had a bad meal when Shirley had it.

Taken them less than a year to [zb] it up. :unamused:
Is it up for sale again or what?

The cook said he thought it was shutting for good.

What was the ‘official reason’ for closing?
Think we know the real.reason.

I still thought the food was ok, but the issue was obviously not enough custom. I think they shot themselves in the foot by going SNAP. The whole reason drivers with half a brain park where they do is to get a dinner included in the parking.

I agree on that.
I also think the name change didn’t help, the business had a good name, as it was synonymous with success.
They could have carried that on and built on it by adding their own touch, instead of changing the name and not maintaining the quality set by the previous owners.
