RE: THE HUDSON'S BAR & GRILL.

A bunch of the old Hat & Feather regulars set up a Hat & Feather reunion night for 1 night only on 21st MARCH 2009.

Lots of people turned up and all was going well until the new Landlord of Hudson's Bar & Grill, Richard Fenton called the police. Why? Because there were too many people in his bar and they were disturbing his customers who were eating!

I'll leave you all to make your own mind up about Richard Fenton and his very sad Hudson's Bar & Grill and the pitiful regular client�le he attracts.

On a plus point he was told by the police that it was one of the nicest pub crowds that they had encountered that evening and he, Richard Fenton, was wasting the police's time!

Oh! yes I forgot to mention. The beer is awful and the drinks are severely overpriced and to top it all the staff are terrible.

Having left school, back in the 'post-punk' days, I went looking for 'life'. I found it in the Hat and Feather, or 'the 'a'' as we called it.I grew up there, became the person I am today. I frequented all the pubs in Walcot, went to live in Walcot, but the Hat was number one for me. It was my local. The passing of the Hat and Feather marks the end of an era; they were great times and the Hat was a great pub, a pub unlike any other I have been in.

My old dad was a copper in Bath in the 60's When i got to be 15 he told me "never go in the Hat n feather it's trouble!" guess where i headed as soon as i thought i could pass for 18? The place was like a wild west saloon, it even had a swing half latticed door. the gents bogs were hard core old fashioned ceramics ! Hard rock music, bare floorboards, serious drinker guys bit toothless but very friendly, old feel to place but all was nailed down.....soon as you walked in you knew this was a serious drinking place and there was a feeling of .....phew it's quiet now ... i'll just have a quick pint now and move on.....I went because it always served the best pint of 6X in town and me dad said don't go. It was the epitome of spit and saw dust and for me will always be the best pub ever closely followed by the Horse and Jockey at Stanedge in Saddleworth

This was my local when I was a student in Bath in the late eighties and early nineties. Smiles Best and Thatchers Cider. Gutted that its closed. Popped a few years ago after my mates funeral and it was apparent it was on a bit of a downward spiral then. Will have to rely on the memories - if I can remember any of them.

The "Hat" was one of my fave pubs in the early 80s. It was full of great characters. A sad loss for the Walcot community.
