| We do apologise once again for the inconvenience the closure of the pub causes to your plans. We are in the process of having the website updated and changed. The Saturday opening time is incorrect as you have discovered and we open at 6pm. So far as private parties are concerned, we do endeavour to ensure that everyone is informed when we are closign the Griffin,but understand that occasional visitors cannot be personally advised. We will ensure that the closure of the pub however infrequent/frequent is publicised on the site. vauxhallgriffin - 21 Aug 2011 19:00 |
| On the website it says opening time for Saturday: Midday - LATE, We just visited at 14.40 on a Saturday to find it locked up tight with the curtains drawn. Either someone has changed the meaning of 'midday' or we have been "inconvenienced by (yet another) extraordinary closing time". These arbitrary closing times are clearly not 'extrordinary' but frequent which is a massive shame. popalug - 13 Aug 2011 14:50 |
| I have to agree with popalug. This is a great pub, but they spoil it by closing for private parties - even (or especially) on Saturday nights. This seems to be madness for a pub, and I'm afraid that whatever their feedback says, this isn't well publicised. They have a website that lists everything that's on, but that never mentions that they're going to be closed - they simply put a sign up a few days before - fine if you go in two or three times a week, but useless if you pop in every couple of weeks. Such a pity because it really is a great pub. qsbam - 5 Jul 2011 21:13 |
| If other pubs went to the pub for a drink this is where they'd go. Proper boozer for talking and drinking. Met up in here last night prior to curry at Hot Stuff. Arrived at 6 and loads of space. Great collection of furniture. Had a pint of the Ringwood 49er which was a bit sulfurous for my taste but followed with lovely pint of Doom Bar. Popped back after meal for nightcap and place was full but still got a table to sit at. Good atmosphere, mix of old and young drinkers, pool table still there and popular. Efficient friendly bar staff made for a top evening. Dan65 - 17 Jun 2011 22:22 |
| Thanks for replying Vauxhallgriffin, I guess we were just unfortunate as it hasn't happened since! Very friendly staff and reasonably inexpensive for the area. Feels welcoming and comfortable though if you're listening some of the chairs could do with reupholstering! popalug - 3 Jun 2011 13:14 |
