The Rest is Noise pub to close

[wemakeyousoundb]

beer prices in pubs: wholesalers have recently added 4.6% to their prices
soon the budget is gonna add whatever
same happens every year
outlook is bad :/
But the plan to legislate a minimum price for alcohol is still ontrack, apparently with no effect whatsoever

Have there been posts deleted from this thread that were made last night ? Or did I just imagine it ?

£3.65 a pint of pissy Strongbow, £3.85 Guiness & £4.00...yes £4.00 a pint of Star at the Railway (tulse hill)

Fuck em, I'm going back to the Tavern/Hart.....they can keep there new cunty dulwich college customers!

I was in there less than a week ago, and although the beers weren't cheap I'm sure I didn't get charged that much.

The al fresco pool table is interesting too.

I've posted a little feature about the pub here: http://www.urban75.org/blog/rest-is-noise-pub-brixton-closes-forever/

Whats it being replaced with, i know its retail but does anyone know which shop.

 

[bosie]

I heard (via a brixton business owner) that it is going to be a Primark. Nothing on their wesbsite though so not sure if it is true or not. Would the site be big enough?

 

[editor]

I *think* there might be an upstairs to the place...

Given the apparent success of H&M I'm not surprised another cheap'n'nasty clobber shop wants in.

Would rather it be a Waitrose than a Primark. Stilll both are better than another coffee shop.

I chose not to go with homophobic-sounding abuse no doubt scribbled by some ironic hipster. I mean, who takes a marker pen into a pub like the Rest Is Noise and writes rubbish like that?

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I'm not sure what aryfag pub is. I thought maybe it was meant to be artyfarty

 

[TruXta]

Artfag?

 

[RaverDrew]

More to do with hipsters rather than homophobia.

And it's true, the place was always crawling with skinny jeans and wanky haircuts.

 

[Orang Utan]

Fag = derogative term for homosexual, so it's totally homophobic and typical of ignorant bigot's portrayal of anyone involved in the arts as homosexual.

 

[RaverDrew]

Most probably written by a hipster trying to be "ironic"

 

[Orang Utan]

I doubt it - it was probably written by a goose regular, irked at seeing his pub change

Either way, it's amusing and should have been included in the 'report'.

Indeed.

Either way, it's amusing and should have been included in the 'report'.

Why not write your own report and then you can include all the "amusing" photos of all the hipster-speak, homophobic-sounding, marker pen graffiti you like!

 

[Onket]

I suppose, if I had my own website I could do whatever I like on it too.

Yes, that's right. You get off your arse and make the effort and then you can post up all the "amusing" photos of dodgy hipster homophobic abuse you like!

 

[Onket]

Yeah, I could do that.

If only there was some other way to post it, without setting up my own website. Hmmmm.

By the way, by incorrectly banging on about it being homophobic abuse, you just look like someone wringing their hands at a dinner party, worrying about 'the kids of today' and what they get up to these days.

It is quite amusing though.

 

[editor]

Yeah, I could do that.

If only there was some other way to post it, without setting up my own website. Hmmmm.

You've already posted it up here for free and with barely any effort required on your part, so I've no idea what you're pathetically whining about. Oh, and perhaps you feel comfortable throwing around hipster words like "artfag" but I'm not, although no one's stopping you using it here if that's how you get your kicks.

 

[Onket]

'pathetically whining'

'throwing around hipster words'

I've posted a picture I took and several people have found it amusing, that's all.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I still don't know what an artfag is

eta: Googled it

And then bleated and whined that I didn't include it in my own article on my own site. You're turning into a parody.
