The Barton's Arms

[frank]

The manageress has just informed me that the Barton's Arms is closing with immediate effect

[PeterWithe]

What a shame, I've often wondered if match day revenue made up for all the times I've been in the week and been pretty much the only one there.

[Archbishop Herbert Cockthrottle]

I'm doing the lottery tonight and if I win, I'm buying it.

[Nunkin1965]

Oh no!
Our port of call before matchdays.
Very sorry to hear this.

WTAF??

[Risso]

FFS, any actual good news to be had anywhere?

[chrisw1]

I've been meaning to pop into the Barton's for some time, but never tend to get around to it as I drive to most games.  It's a shame to hear this as it's such an iconic pub.

[Risso]

I get that it's not in the nicest part of Brum, but what's it like in there on a non-match day? The food always seems amazing so I thought that would have been enough of a draw?

[PeterWithe]

Has management changed recently? the food reviews over the last year aren't great and plenty of complaints that there is a lack of beer choice.

[Axl Rose]

Crap news.

Hope you win the lottery, your Grace!

[Charlie8182]

I was only in there last night before the game, real bad news if true.

[Brend'Watkins]

Can we have 2023 back please.  This is bad news.

[PeterWithe]

FB page says Temporarily Closed. 'Due to unforeseen circumstances, BA will be closed until further notice'

[amfy]

Hopefully this is temporary! Terrible news if we lose it completely. Matchdays ruined!
Was packed last night pre-match - nothing seemed amiss.

If it were to be closed down by current owners, surely it would be prime for a takeover and conversion into a Desi Pub
