Only if it was badly kept! Not to many "pavement pizzas" outside a Bents pub,but lots near pubs that had the new-fangled lager!

My dad told me that yes- it is closing down. frown in the New Year.

My dad went the Sandbank and the (old) Five Bars on Christmas Eve- reports that both pubs were empty aka 'dead'.

Such a shame, really is. frown

Oh yes, they brought a bitter out called Sargent Major it was vile, I used to drink in the Prince Albert sometimes but mainly Brasseys, good old Birkenhead Brewery, the best pint and a quarter black and tan in Wallasey

My dad and mum drank in the Bee, Float and Brasseys. Finishing in the Mona Castle ( Katon's) with a K I think. After Brasseys was pulled down around about 1989.

I think it was called Catons after an early owner, with a C I think but could be wrong. smile

No idea of how it should be spelt, tbh. In writing, i would say Keightons??

Still, in my opinion- an absolute Dive.Would not go there for a night out.

Back in the day- in Seacombe Town- me n Plusone would do La Banque, Five Bars, P.A and then the Leasowe. Plus would win all of the Karaoke Comps and we spend his 'earnings' in Shots at The Labour Club that was opposite the P.A. Happy days smile
