No notice outside saying anything.

However,  the tables and chairs that were outside are all now stacked up inside.

I'm told Fountains was shut due to an unpaid roof repair bill, it was then re-opened to sell all the booze off.

No shortage of people after it, due to prime location.

Does any body know whether it will reopen as a bar or will it be a completely different business?

I'm hoping the Roberts clan will reopen it as a general store, just like in the old days...  :laugh:

I see the Tal Y Cafn Hotel will re-opening this weekend as a Pub Restaurant, after being closed for 6 years. All the best to Castell Developments (who also own Gwrych Casstle in Abergele) with their new venture.

  The Tal y Cafn has had three major revamps over the last 15 years. Don't know what went wrong with the first two. The six years closure will do it some good, it might remove peoples memories of it around 12 years ago under Punch Taverns. They put a succession of trainee managers in charge and most of them were terrible.

It's in a location that means the food has to be top notch to persuade people to drive over  to it, i suppose.

Absolutely delicious fresh tasting whole plaice was my choice at the skip today. It came with brown shrimp, grapefruit and radish. Full marks for that one.
