What, pray tell? I'm intrigued.

Meetings regularly took place there for the BNP, Combat 18 etc

Think its well over a fiver now! Got hammered by one of the alcohol taxes few years ago. Should be fucking illegal that tackle anyway, rotten stuff not touched it since I was about 15.

I wondered why I had not seen anyone sat with there back to a bin cradling a 3 litre bottle of artifical cider for a while. Over a fiver, Jeez

I was on a stag do in Copenhagen recently. £96 for 4 rum and cokes and a pint. Madness having a stag do in that place, lovely as it is.

The lager is feckin awful as well.

No it’s been refurbished sadly and its soulless , think it’s run by a rag .

It is. A self proclaimed MIB Rag who I worked with, he and his cronies drink in there.

Saltiest pasta dish I've ever had, bordeline inedible. Wine in a fucking tumbler.

Shan't be going back.

Wine is often served in tumblers in lots of restaurants in Italy.

I don't recall that from my trips to Rome or Florence, but maybe I got lucky.

I had no idea. I suppose, had they met in a more prominent venue, the bastards would have been run out of town.

Did Mother Macs close in the end?

Awful place run by nasty staff.

Me and a mate got screamed at and had the door slammed in our faces a few years ago by some old fella who I assume was the landlord.

We weren’t drunk, loud etc and we both look like perfectly respectful normal people.

Personally I hope that shithole closes down and turns into a Tescos.

Last time I go in Mother Macs.

It's still open having undergone a recent refurbishment. What's less well known is its notorious history. In 1976, landlord, Arthur Bradbury, killed his wife and three children, as well as the pub’s cleaner, before setting fire to the building and killing himself in the blaze.

Is there were the 'haunted' reputation came from?

Never been in and I'd hazard a guess I won't visit in the future....
